Cimarroncito is one of three climbing camps located in Philmont Scout Ranch's Central Country. Crews can learn climbing and rappelling skills and see the beautiful ecology of the Fire Recovery Zone at the edge of the 2018 Ute Park Fire Recovery Zone. Treks can learn about fire ecology and test their archery skills. There’s gold in these hills! Join the miners who worked for Charlie Cypher during the early 1900s and learn what the search for gold entailed. Discover the rich history of the Cimarroncito Mining District and get ready to join in at the Stomp show! Additional Info: Formerly a girls’ camp from 1931 to 1995, Cimarroncita was acquired by Philmont in 2015. It opened in 2021 and serves as a starting point for crews hiking into Central Country.
