Now, you may imagine that's plenty but there's even more fun stuff to do here at Lake Irwin. If you need a site to stay Elevation Hotel & Spa is a wonderful choice; | |

Kebler Pass is also a good place to discover. Don't stop me now, cause I'm havin' a good time here at Lake Irwin. Whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then we recommend Slate River; Lake Irwin is not the
only place nearby, Green Lake is a nearby lake. This lake is so wonderful. Dry warm beds await you at Elk Mountain Lodge, and don’t forget to take a look at Independence Basin since you're here at Lake Irwin. Lake Irwin is pretty
dried out mostly; most of the rain falls throughout August, and February is when it's the driest. This lake is so wonderful. Crested Butte Mountain Resort is a good local campground; Ruby Peak is clearly visible from Lake Irwin.

Lost Lake Campground
 | I just camped at Lost Lake 2 weeks ago! It is so beautiful and serene they were holding a wedding there 2 days after we left. With only 10 campsites, it is quiet and ideal for families or couples. A beautiful view of Lost Lake Slough and of the mountains in the background greeted us in the morning. The full moon rising over the crest of the mountain was a real treat the first night we got there. There is a 3 mile hike within walking distance on which we saw beautiful wildflowers, 2 waterfalls, and 3 lakes. ENJOY!... |

Excellent white-water kayaking on the Crystal River, for the experienced expert only. Coors Falls at Lead King Basin is a top scale challenge, as is the 2-mile river course from the Crystal Mill. Somewhat milder is the Crystal River from Marble to Redstone. Beyond Redstone gets a little hairy... |

Our Mission:
Our greatest desire is that God would use Camp West for His glory in bringing people to him in evangelism and discipleship. Our prayer is that this occurs both in the retreats we host and the summer camps we operate for children and youth.
For good reason, we qualify the types of organizations that may use this facility to those who are best described as 'Bible believing'. In other words, they are churches and ministries that believe the Bible to be God's inerrant and inspired word, and live out their lives in regards to what the Bible teaches. That is not to say that all groups that use this camp are in total agreeement on all issues. But on the basics of biblical orthodoxy, we must agree.
Affiliations, Ownership, Denominations...
Camp Id-Ra-Ha-Je West is an independent ministry, not affiliated with any one church or denomination, and not owned by any group, individual, or church. The camp has been a ministry of trust for the past 32 years, continuing to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ and teaching the Bibl... |
