Mountain Man Rendezvous



The 2013 Mesa District Mogollon Mountain Man Rendezvous was a tremendous success. Scouts participated in over 60 events, such as black powder shooting, archery, tomahawk throwing, fire starting, relay races, and all sorts of crafts and skills. The Service Outpost, headed up by Tres Hombres and assisted by Yuri Burkinshaw and other volunteers, organized 130 teams who cleared tons of brush from around cabins at Camp Geronimo and repaired erosion damage to trails in the forest and pathways in the camp. Thanks for all those awesome efforts to varsity scouts and their adult advisors!!!

It is not too early to begin preparations for the 2015 Rendezvous. Start collecting antlers for knife handles, leather to make possible bags, coats, hats and other "truck" that a mountain man would use. Free support and consultation is available by calling Tres Hombres (his mountain man name).
