Camp George West Historic District or Camp George West(also known as State Rifle Range;5JF145) was a military base for the Colorado National Guard, located at 15000 S. Golden Rd., Golden, Colorado. The site was used as a rifle range and is now used as a correctional facility.

On site is Ammunition Igloo, a bunker used for arms storage and Colorado Amphitheater, both of which are vacant.

The historic district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993. The Ammunition Igloo and the Amphitheater are also listed, separately, on the National Register of Historic Places.

There is lots more to say about this place.citation|title=PDFlink| [http://www.nr.nps.gov/multiples/64500062.pdf National Register of Historic Places Multiple Property Documentation: Historic Resources of Camp George West] |5500 KB|date=September 1, 1992 |author=R.
