In 2023, after nearly 20 years of service, the Climbing Tower at Ingersoll Scout Reservation needed a $50,000 upgrade to ensure its continued safe operation.
Our 50-foot Climbing Tower is fully equipped with three rock walls of varying difficulty, and a fourth side for advanced climbers with a giant’s ladder and cargo net. We have a 350-foot zip line available during our open sessions, as well as a 40-foot, 20-foot, and 5-foot rappel.
“The best time I had at ISR was definitely climbing the tower… and coming down the zip line!”
The ISR Climbing Tower is a vital and distinguishing feature of the summer camp program, enjoyed by thousands of Scouts over the past two decades. In recognition and appreciation of extraordinary volunteer contributions that Michael L. Molohon (1953-2025) made in the development, enhancement, and maintenance affairs of Ingersoll Scout Reservation by providing a consistent and solid road map for success, the ISR Climbing Tower was dedicated and renamed the Michael L. Molohon Climbing Tower on June 14, 2023. As Property Committee Chairman, Vice President of Property and Executive Board Member, Mike led with passion, knowledge and commitment for over 40 years.
Your financial support will help ensure the continuation of Mike Molohon’s legacy for developing, enhancing, and maintaining Ingersoll Scout Reservation for generations of Scouts.
