199: Camp Cross

Camp Cross is an Episcopal camp on over 100 acres on a peninsula on Lake Coeur d’Alene.

Although back in “the day” they used to march campers around the marsh land (lugging all their gear!), it is now reachable by boat from Loff’s Bay.

There’s a beautiful paved path up to the main meeting halls.

And well-appointed cabins (bathroom included in Olympus) just steps away (47–I counted) from the meeting halls.

(On the right is Olympus; Wells Hall (dining and meeting facility) is in the background, at the end of the path to the left. The middle building is a counselor storage building).
