Photos at Baldy Town


Baldytown Staff Cabin Staff Cabin at Baldy Town The Trading Post at Baldy Town 1935 - The original Baldytown located on Baldy Mountain's East face. Shortly after the end of the Civil War, the surrounding area saw a flood of eager miners looking to profit off of the mountain's gold and copper rush. Another settlement known as Elizabethtown was founded on the mountain's west face and a number of decommissioned mine shafts remain to this day. Baldytown Staff Cabin

Photos at Rayado


Adobe at Rayado Adobe at Rayado Rayado was originally named Carson-Maxwell when it was established in the early 1940s.<br>When Waite Phillips made his second grant to the BSA it was clear that the single base camp model established at Five Points (now Ponil) was no longer practical. Additional base camps were needed in the central and south pieces of the ranch and so Carson-Maxwell and Cimarroncito were created. When the system was refined once more in time for the 1969 season the fixed base-camp model was eliminated and the pre-planned trek system debuted with a mix of themed staff camps and trail camps
