Treasures Ghost Town USA Column Index for Idaho |
The
state of Idaho is rich in natural resources and scenery, and has been drawing
people to its high mountains and wide rich river bottoms for nearly 200 years.
Fur traders first discovered the Gem State in the 1830s and established fur
trading enters here. When migration to Oregon began in the 1840s and the
California Gold Rush after 1848, southeastern Idaho became an important
traveling area, especially along the Snake River. In the early 1860s gold
was discovered in the mountains to the north of the Snake River basin, and
all bets were off. Idaho then enjoyed boom after boom, and rush after rush as
the rich deposits of gold, silver, copper and other minerals were discovered
and exploited. Mining towns popped up overnight, boomed, and disappeared as
the miners went off in search of another rainbow. Today, because of the
low population, and the ruggedness of some of the locations, Idaho has many
remaining ghost towns and old mining camps still available for a visit.
HOWEVER, many are located in the backcountry and a four-wheel drive vehicle
or hiking are required to visit them. Agriculture also played
an important role in development of a number of ghost towns. The southern
part of the state has wide, rich river lands that are amenable to farming,
and during the last few decades of the 19th century and the first couple in
the 20th, many farming communities were established to serve these agrarian
pursuits. However, as is typical in most farming areas (especially as seen in
the Great Plains states), the advent of improved transportation and loss of
the small "mom & pop" farms to agricultural conglomerates have
doomed many of these towns to ghost hood. Idaho is rich in ghost
towns, and a lifetime could be spent pursuing all of them. Listed below are
33 locations to get you started. PLEASE NOTE: Where photos are indicated thusly, please use your browser’s

BAYHORSE
|
Custer Co. |
This class C silver
mining town is located on Bayhorse Creek Road,
along north side of Bayhorse Creek, five miles west
of SH 75 at a point seven miles south of Challis. The mines were discovered
in 1877. A smelter, stamp mill and six charcoal kilns were built to process
the ore. The main street was lined with wooden saloons, boarding houses,
stores and other businesses. In 1893 silver was demonetized and the economy
took a tumble, taking Bay Horse with it. By the early 1920s, the town was
deserted. Wooden buildings still stood in the 1980s. A cemetery is located west of the charcoal
kilns, which are located west of town. ·

FORT HALL
|
Bannock Co. |
This class C/F
reconstructed ($)
replica of the original Fort Hall is located on US 30/91, a mile north of
I-15 Exit #67, in southern Pocatello.
It was built in the 1960s and is operated as a museum. Click here to go to their webpage. The original site is
marked by a historic marker and is located along the south side of the Snake
River about 200 yards south of the county line, just north of the river’s
inlet on the American Falls Reservoir northwest of Pocatello. The first site was originally
established in 1834 by “Nathaniel J. Wyeth and named after one of his
financial backers - Henry Hall of Boston. Several years later (1837) Wyeth
sold the fort to the Hudson's Bay Company and Thomas McKay of HBC took it
over.” (This section contributed by Dr. JoAn Dilweg, Aug 31, 2010) A second Fort Hall was
built about 25 miles from the original site and operated as a military post
and important stopping point on the Oregon Trail. It was also the point at
which many California bound emigrants split off and headed south towards
California. It was in use from 1870-1883, and the old buildings were turned
over for use as a school for Native American children. ·

here is due to that fact and a few pictures I wish to share. On August 10, 2009, I sort-of visited
Kellogg when I spent some quality camera time with the towns lining Canyon
Creek, northeast of Wallace (Gem-Burke).
Right off the north side of I-90 at EXIT 51, I took a few pictures of
a quaint real estate office on the north side of Kellogg that was shaped like

STIBNITE |
Valley
Co. |
Located in the Frank Church
Wilderness, nine AIR miles southeast of Yellow Pine, and along Meadow Creek,
just west of its confluence with the East Fork of the South Fork of the
Salmon River, this old tungsten mining town is “only accessible by foot.” It has a number of interesting structures
as shown by the linked photos by Dan Albert.
The GNIS maps do show a road in, but according to Mr. Albert, it
appears the road is not open to vehicle traffic. The topographic map also shows a number of
other named mining camps in the vicinity (Forest Grove, Midnight, Monday Camp). One of the major mines
was the Meadow Creek mine (indicated on GNIS), which produced gold, antimony,
mercury and tungsten. The gold and
antimony mines began operation around 1914 when Albert Hennessey staked some
claims. Mining began and in 1918 there
was a mercury boom. In 1927, the
Bradley Mining Company purchased the mines and major development began and by
1932 production began. The camp grew
and operated through WWII as an underground mine. In 1943, it was turned into an open pit.
This was a major supplier of tungsten and antimony to the US War effort in
the 1940s and was one of the few mines that remained open due to its
production of this vital material. It
produced as much as 80% of the tungsten and 90% of the antimony used in the
war. Many of the miners lived in
frame-tent houses, or older log houses.
A number of wood frame homes were also built by the mining company to provide
decent shelter for the miners and families.
There was a high turnover of miners due to the isolated position and
harsh winters. Amenities included a
bowling alley, gas station/garage, hospital, post office, recreation center,
school and a theater (possibly in the recreation center?). The town is said to have had over 1500
residents between 1941 and 1945 due to the huge boom in mining during the war
years. The mine closed in
1952 and in 1955 the processing plant and many of the buildings were torn
town or relocated. In 1965, the small
dam that was built on Meadow Creek to provide hydroelectric power to the
operation failed and caused some flooding.
There was renewed activity beginning in 1970, when off-and-on again
mining for gold occurred until 1998. Ruins, foundations
and a few standing
buildings remain of this historic old mining town. ALL Photos Courtesy of Dan Albert, January 1, 2011 ·
