[philmont] 2007 Treks

They have renumbered almost every trek this year. Luckily, there are really no more major changes than is normal for past years. It appears that they have renumbered based solely on miles and then have rated them, also based solely on miles. So there could be a 65 mile trek that is actually easier than a 58 mile trek depending on the elevation changes. Last night Jim Thompson sent out a great summary of comparing the old and new trek numbers and the new ratings of the new numbers.

For those of you who do not yet have your trek books, I have taken Jims summary and listed the changes to the individual treks. Remember Day 1 and 12 are base camp.
