Camp George West Historic District, Military historic district in Golden, Colorado.

Camp George West Historic District is a military historic district in Golden with multiple former military structures, ammunition storage bunkers, and underground facilities spread across the grounds. The site is located at 15000 South Golden Road and now serves multiple government agencies.

Camp George West served as a rifle range for the Colorado National Guard, while artillery practice took place on Green Mountain, north of present-day Hayden Park near Lakewood. The historic district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993, with the Ammunition Igloo and the Colorado Amphitheater listed separately.

The site's name honors George West, a Colorado National Guard officer, though the sources do not record the naming date. Two structures stand out: the Ammunition Igloo, a bunker built for arms storage, and the Colorado Amphitheater. Both are vacant today, so visitors see them only from outside.

The grounds are now used by a correctional facility, police academy, and emergency operations center, which means public access is limited. Before visiting, check what areas you can actually see or if tours are available.

The Department of Defense conducts ongoing investigations to identify unexploded ordnance left from past training exercises. These hidden remnants from military operations continue to affect how the site is managed today.
