Daily Contingent Trek Schedule

Philmont Treks are 12 days in duration.  During the trek, participants and the Philmont staff refer to the "day" of the trek, not the actual date or day of the week.

For the purpose of communication, we are referring to our travel days as "Day 0" and "Day 13".  Days 1 through 12 are the days actually at Philmont.
