Category: Gilmore, Idaho

Here are all the blog posts about Gilmore, Idaho - a near-ghost town where we're building a cabin.

I've always loved Gilmore :) The town got its start in the late 1800s, and back then it thrived on gold, silver, and lead mining. At its peak, there were over 600 mines scattered around the area.

The town carried on until the 1960s, when the last mines closed because operating them wasn't profitable anymore. In recent years, though, Gilmore has found new life as a small recreational town, with private owners - like me - building cabins and enjoying the outdoors.
