Camp La Junta

A riverside boys’ camp with individual activity schedules, age-specific challenges, riding and outdoor skills.

Camp La Junta sits beside the Guadalupe River in Hunt. Grade-based divisions include Wranglers, Cowboys, Tophands and Advanced Campers. Boys share cabins with peers but receive individual daytime schedules based on age, ability and ten activity preferences. Personal progress is complemented by participation in the camp’s traditional Ranch teams.
