Camp Geronimo Headquarters
Private
Camp Geronimo is the primary Scouts BSA summer camp of the Grand Canyon Council, sitting at 5,200 feet on the Mogollon Rim just north of Payson and surrounded by more than 5,000 acres of ponderosa pine. It has run one-week summer sessions since 1956, where Scouts build their own schedules from more than 40 merit badges, and it also hosts camporees and merit badge clinics through the year. The camp has modern shower houses, a pool and pool house, and campsites with canvas wall tents.
