After a five-year search, this property at Wind Mountain was purchased in 1948. Originally called Camp Wind Mountain, plans quickly formed to build roads, erect buildings, establish a water system and bring in electric power. By 1964, the changing landscape and wear of old buildings called for reconstruction. The camp officially became Camp Arrowhead in 1968, and much of the lodging still standing today was built in this era. Amenities like the swimming pool were added later. In 2005, the Marie Lamfrom climbing wall was constructed. For more details, expand each time period listed below.
