Summary: | An archeological survey was conducted on lands under the jurisdiction of the Colorado National Guard's Camp George West in Jefferson County, Colorado. No prehistoric cultural resources were found. Historic resources related to the Camp include small arms firing ranges, several Works Progress Administration structures, and an area likely used for the temporary placement of tents. The tent area is considered to be a contributing property to the National Register of Historic Places district proposed for the Camp. Although not the present responsibility of the National Guard, the South Table Mountain Basalt Quarries and the Table Mountain Gun Club were recorded. |
