[philmont] burro comments

We had burros on our treks in 2003 and 2006. Picked up at Ponil and
dropped off at Miranda. The boys seemed to enjoy working with them and
they definitely did lighten the load. Only issue I recall was that they
can slow you down a little on the trail and getting started in the
morning. Overall the uniqueness of packing burros was worth the
trouble.

I understand that if you select a trek that includes a burro, you must
now take the burro. It is no longer optional. Anyone that has had a
burro experience, please comment. Give pros & cons. Also whether your
borro trek was Ponil to Miranda or Miranda to Ponil.
 
Thanks,
