RE: [Philmont]: Valle Vidal questions

A scout that from our troop that was a ranger in 2002 and 2004 told me that
the straight down trail from Greenwood into Copper Park has been rebuilt and
now actually has some switchbacks. He helped lug some of the equipment they
used up that hill.

Phil is correct. Camp sites are available along the trail. We passed a few
to get the last one before the trail to Copper Park. The trail to Copper
Park is an old logging road. Near the top the "trail" to Copper Park goes
off to the left. In 2001 it was a Nightmare. Straight down. False steps
that gave way with your weight. Was supposed to be a switch back system.
Hope they have fixed it for you. FYI...we arrived in plenty of time to do
French Henry. We wake at 6ish.
