Each troop site is divided into patrol sites. Each site includes several 7' x 9' wall tents with platforms for two people, picnic table with benches, dining fly, fire box, fire extinguisher and fire barrel. A pack frame with a food carrier basket will be issued with the first meal.

PATROL COOKING
SPSR is a patrol cooking camp. Sunday Evening, Friday Evening and Saturday Morning meals will be served at the commissary. Scouts in the Patrol Sites will cook all other meals. Food will be issued with cooking instructions prior to each meal.

Notice for groups traveling: Spanish Peaks Scout Ranch provides 2-man wall tents, wooden platforms for the tents, a campsite, with latrine and running water, open shower facilities (with hot water) and food. Normally all other patrol and cooking gear are brought by the troop. The camp has enough equipment to provide for approximately 6 patrols, remember we are a patrol cooking camp with very limited dining hall capabilities. WE ARE VERY PRIMITIVE COMPARED TO MANY SCOUT CAMPS!!! Spanish Peaks Scout Ranch is a real "back to the basics" Scout camp. Our aims are to emphasis the patrol method and organization. Your weekend camp out with the patrols cooking & cleaning, hiking, and going to shower houses are great practice for your camping experience at SPSR.
EMAIL me if you have any questions about this.
