Floodwood Mountain Scout Reservation has been the ultimate site for High Adventure for over 50 yrs. Floodwood is located near Saranac Lake, NY about an hour west of Lake Placid in the heart of the Adirondacks. With its many lakes, streams, and High Peaks, Floodwood is perfectly located to offer a High Adventure challenge second to none.

Choose either a canoe trek from our base located on Rollins Pond or backpacking trek into the High Peaks Wilderness. Accompanying your unit for your trek will be one of our experienced staff Voyagers, a trained wilderness guide. While 100% customizable canoe and backpacking treks are the mainstay of Floodwood, we also offer first class waterskiing/tubing, rock climbing/rappelling, archery, as well as many other day and overnight hikes and paddles.

Floodwood is truly a special place in the Adirondacks and offers your unit the opportunity to create memories that will last forever!

If a Scout cannot attend with their own Troop, they can camp on their own “provisionally.” Even if this is their first year or sixth, they will always find excitement at Camp!

Scouting has many materials to help you deliver the program. Some items are created by local staff and volunteers and others are produced by the National Boy Scouts of America.

Northern NJ Council, operates two Scouts BSA Resident Camps, and one Scouts BSA Trekking Camp. We have both troop and provisional camping opportunities available at our three Scouts BSA Summer camps.

Resident Camp is fun week-long overnight camping experience for Scouts BSA and Venturers that provides those who attend an exciting program of education, adventure and purpose. It is an excellent environment to promote character, citizenship, and fitness as well as meet other Scouts, earn merit badges or take advantage of advancement opportunities.
