The unique aspect of TGE Rockies is the setting. Western State College is nestled in the Gunnison Valley about 4 hours south-west of Denver. TGE Rockies takes advantage of the beautiful Rocky Mountains. Your groups can go rafting on the Taylor River (form downloads at bottom of this page), take a chair lift ride to the continental divide, go boating at Blue Mesa Reservoir or go shopping in Crested Butte. Not to mention that there is hiking within walking distance from campus. Add on top of that great teaching, outstanding worship, small group and family time where you can dig deeper with your group. The TGE Rockies Team is available to tailor your TGE Rockies experience to your group’s individual needs.
