Camp Tri-Mount

Camper there in the late 90s and Counselor from 99 to 08. Loved the camp and it was a great place to grow up and spend my summers. Not sure what the camp condition is anymore though, haven't stepped foot there in 20 years.

I attended camp as a youth 30 years ago and now for the past 10 as a leader. The camp is very nice. It is located way up in the mountains and away from the lights and noise of an urban (or even suburban) area. In the past few years they have replaced the cots and tents around camp and are much nicer. If you haven't been to a camp that is truly in the woods, this is one to try. There is no pavement, sidewalks, or pool... But if you would like to do archery, swim, row, canoe, ropes course, rifle range, and so much more; give it a try.

My troop goes to tri-mount at least twice a year. Fun trails, heated showers at the bathhouse and centrally located in the Hudson valley

There are many things wrong with this camp, but I'm getting the obvious out of the way. The dining hall is dirty, the trading post (shop) takes to long to get anything, the tents are old and have holes in them, and I wouldn't even feed the food to my dog. Some other problems, there was a woman in the staff who was concerned with some of the scouts in my troop, because one is lactose intolerant and another can't have gluten. She was the only one in the entire staff who was cancerned and she was fired when she brought up the topic. Also some of the staff (Not naming anyone) is way to harsh when it comes to merit badges. This was a waste of a week and $400. I reccomend Onteora Scout Reservation over this camp

Without proper funding and the lack of volunteers it makes the camp hard to keep thriving. But for what it is it's a great camp.
