Gilmore

Gilmore is a ghost town in Lemhi County, Idaho, with roots in the silver industry that once drew settlers to this remote corner of the state.

Visitors today will find the remnants of a former community in a rugged Idaho setting. The site qualifies as an unincorporated community, meaning some structural or geographic presence persists, but the bustling activity of its productive years is long gone. Expect weathered buildings or foundations rather than a living town.

Access to ghost towns in this part of Idaho typically involves unpaved rural roads best suited to high-clearance vehicles, and conditions can be unreliable outside the summer and early fall window. Winter and early spring bring snow and mud that make the area difficult or impassable to reach.
