This is one of our favorite places to ATV. Silver City has a population of 64 in summer and 1( a security guard in the winter. You can only access it by snow mobile in winter.
Each year they have a home tour. The homes can't be restored on the outside, but on the inside they are quite beautiful. People use them as summer homes. It's almost impossible to buy here as you can't build new and old ones are usually passed down to family or sold word of mouth.
This is the old school house. When a mining town would close down they would bring window, tin roofs, anything they could haul, to begin a new town.
Please note who the major sponsor is for the school. See Idaho does have it's celebrities.
This is the old masonic lodge. Silver City was a big town at one time. The guy that owns the "Silver Slipper Saloon" in town, bought this as a guest house. He has several bedrooms, kitchen and bath fixed up. It's quite nice. The main hall is used by the masons once a year. They are in the process of fixing that part up now.
