More Info
Steeped in the mystic of the Old West, Stanley, Idaho was first settled in 1890 by miners who had come to the area seeking their fortune. Stanley is one of the few remaining gold era towns. Others including Vienna, Sawtooth City, Custer and Bonanza have become simply "ghosts" of their former selves.
