Cederlands Scout Reservation is a 5,000-acre (20 km2) Scout camp situated in Long Lake, New York. The Reservation has a traditional base camp program for younger Scouts and a high adventure program for older Scouts. In the heart of the Adirondack Park Cedarlands is a two and a half hour drive from Utica. Cedarlands boasts three mountains (OA, Walker and Masters), Lake McRorie and Scout Pond. Both Lake McRorie and Scout Pond have islands on them for exploration. Cedarlands is different from most council-owned camps as Scouts are given the opportunity to cook their own meals three times a day. There are barbecues on Sunday and Friday nights. A climbing program is offered on a thirty foot climbing wall. Merit badges consist of the traditional merit badges offered at a Boy Scout camp. Embarking for Cedarlands, a Scout can plan to hike a mountain or two, go snorkeling, sailing and mountain biking on camp owned bikes (or bring your own).
