Description
St. Elmo is a ghost town in Chaffee County, Colorado, United States at 10,000 feet altitude. Founded in 1880, St. Elmo lies in the heart of the Sawatch Range, 20 miles southwest of Buena Vista. Nearly 2,000 people settled in this town when mining for gold and silver became evident. The mining industry started to decline in the early 1920s, and in 1922 the train discontinued service. It is one of Colorado's most preserved ghost towns.
