Camp Geronimo (BSA)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Camp Geronimo is operated by the Grand Canyon Council and is located north of Payson, Arizona. It is near the Mogollon Rim. It sits on 200 acres of forest and meadows, and is surrounded by over 5,000 acres of ponderosa pine forest at the edge of the Colorado Plateau. It is a year-around facility.
[edit] Spade Ranch House
The Spade Ranch house is a piece of history located in Camp Geronimo. It has been around for over 100 years. Every year during the boy scout summer camp, older scouts build strong memories through high adventure activities.
The Spade Ranch house was built by the Spade family on the basis of Webber Creek just beneath the Mogollon Rim.
The Spade Ranch house is also the home to the Mogollon monster story, which is a classic traditionally told for every group of campers that come through each week during the summer camp.
