The current process works like this. Councils nation wide are first offered t6he opportunity to reserve treks. Then during the months of October and November of 2005 units will be able to make an application to attend on- line. A computer program then randomly selects units and offers them invitations. other units are give standby positions in case any of the original units fail to complete the registration process.
On average over 18,000 scouts will hike Philmont's trails each year.
