Scott and I had just finished hiking up to Agnes Vaille Falls in the Chalk Cliffs area and we decided to take a quick drive to St. Elmo, one of the best preserved ghost towns in all of Colorado. |
 |
There are many old storefronts and buildings like these. |
 |
Honestly, we didn't even bother to get out of the car because of the rain. (A photo of Scott snapping a picture.) |

You can see more of my photos of St. Elmo when I
visited in January 2006 at:
St. Elmo, Colorado Photo Gallery. |

 |
Many of the homes are privately owned, but picture-taking (as I understand) is an encouraged alternative to trespassing. |
 |
St. Elmo is just six miles from Tincup Pass, and the bumpy
4-wheel road begins here. I had the joy of 4-wheeling up to Tincup Pass two weeks ago, and you
can see those photos here:
