New FOR 2018! Superman Fly Zipline &

Climbing Tower Have you ever wanted to fly like Superman down a zip line? Well, starting this summer at Camp Tuckahoe, Boy Scouts of all ages will be able to experience the rush of flying head first down a nearly 700’ long zip line spanning Memory Lake.

Work to create this awesome zip line will soon be getting underway and will include the creation of a 38’ tall climbing tower near the dam spillway, and this tower will serve as the starting point for the zip line experience. Scouts will zip across the lake to a two-pole tower on the road side of the lake, where they will turn around and zip back across the lake to the starting area.

While Tuckahoe’s zip line can be used for a traditional “swing style” seat commonly seen on many zip lines, the use of “Superman” harness will provide Scouts with a truly unique experience to zip across in a “flying” position. The addition of the climbing tower will also create the opportunity for Boy Scouts to work on and earn Climbing merit badge during summer camp sessions. Please check the summer camp schedule for those times when Climbing merit badge will be offered. The climbing tower will feature two different climbing walls, with one side designed as a more challenging experience than the other. A third wall, a flat rappelling wall, will allow participants to rappel down after climbing up to the top of the tower. Boy Scouts are also able to learn how and assist in belaying climbers using the tower.
