Excerpt: This article is about a ghost town in Chaffee County, Colorado. For the populated place of the same name in Rio Grande County, please see Alpine, Colorado. Alpine is a small community, sometimes considered a ghost town, in Chaffee County, Colorado, United States. It was founded in the 1860s as a mining town. When the mines played out, the Mary Murphy Mine about four miles from St. Elmo was the last to close in 1910, and both Alpine and St. Elmo became ghost towns. There were still a few residents who continued to live in the two towns, but the towns were nearly empty for half a century. Then in the 1950s and 1960s people rediscovered the quiet beauty of Chalk Creek gulch and built summer homes. Some of the salvageable buildings in Alpine and St. Elmo were fixed up and still stand. The current residents are proud of their community histories and take pride in maintaining the character and appearance of both these old mining towns.
