====Summer camps====

===== Steve Fossett Spirit of Adventure Ranch =====
The Steve Fossett Spirit of Adventure Ranch (SOAR) was launched in Summer 2014. The camp was located in the Colorado Rockies near the eastern entrance of Glenwood Canyon, 8 miles off of I-70 from the Dotsero exit. The camp closed after the 2018 summer season, when it served as an alternate high adventure base for scouts unable to attend Philmont due to summer fires. The council merger did not include plans to renew the lease for the camp.

=====Spanish Peaks Scout Ranch=====
The Spanish Peaks Scout Ranch (SPSR) is located near [[Walsenburg, Colorado]] and borders the [[Spanish Peaks Wilderness]]. It is a local council camp of the [[Santa Fe Trail Council]] based out of [[Garden City, Kansas]]. The camp gives program geared toward outdoor education such as wilderness backpacking, climbing, and outdoor skills. In 2013, the camp was partially destroyed by [[East Peak fire|a wildfire]] which destroyed over 13,500 acres. The camp has since been rebuilt and has re-opened for operation.
