swilliams 157 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Our Troop is considering climbing/rappelling along the Shawangunk Mountain range. So far, the only "real" campground we've found is run by the Alpine Club, and the charge is $38 per site (for non-members), with a maximum of 4 people per site. That would put the cost for the camping at a minimum of $190, if we have a typical turnout. While we've paid fees like this in the past for camping, this trip would include a guided climbing lesson, which is already a fairly large expense compared to our usual campouts. Is anyone here familiar with that area? Are there alternate places to camp? The nearest council-owned camp isn't all that close (Tri-Mountain Council). I put a call in to them anyway, and am waiting to hear back as to whether they are allowing group camping, but haven't heard back yet. Link to post Share on other sites
FaithfulScouter 20 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 (edited) My Troop stayed at this camp when they did rock climbing at the Gunks. Hope this helps. https://koa.com/campgrounds/newburgh/ Edited March 3, 2021 by FaithfulScouter Link to post Share on other sites
