Fire Mountain Scout Camp (FMSC) is located just outside of Mount Vernon, WA in the shadow of Cultus Mountain, a foothill to the North Cascades. With our own Lake Challenge at its heart, Fire Mountain is a green forest of Cedar trees and grassy fields. For 50 years Fire Mountain has been the home of Scouting’s outdoor program in the Mount Baker Council. We invite YOU to make Fire Mountain your Scouting home as well!

Day Camp isn’t just for Cub Scouts! Merit Badge Madness is a week of intense merit badge offerings with scouts signing up for each day and badge at a time. Each day will consist of a core offering of Eagle required merit badges as well as a selection of other opportunities (based on MB counselor availability). Most of these offerings won’t be part of the standard Fire Mountain selection including the new Citizenship in Society Merit Badge! Scouts can sign up for one day or multiple days with the option to go home each night or stay on site for a small charge.

NYLT is an exciting, action 
packed program designed to provide youth members of the Boy Scouts of America with leadership skills and experience they can use in their home Troops and Venturing Crews. The leadership skills taught can be used in any other situation demanding leadership of “self” and “others.” This process begins with a “vision” of what success will look like in the future.
