Mountain Friends Camp is located at Timberline Trails in Tincup, Colorado (Driving Directions). Our host Timberline Trails, Inc. is a nonprofit organization with decades of summer camp experience. Facilities include four cozy cabins, an indoor kitchen and bathhouse, volleyball court, fire-circles. Our gorgeous high mountain location is surrounded by lakes, hiking trails, Forest Service land, lots of wildflowers and wildlife, and a historic mining town. Potential plork projects abound, too: oiling log cabins, fixing up trails, helping with Forest Service projects, and conducting oral history interviews of local residents are just a few examples! Timberline Trails is located at an elevation of 10,200 feet, with July lows in the low 30s and highs in the 60s! We’re prepared to stay active, enjoy campfires, and bundle up at night.
