Frisco, ghost town in Beaver County, Utah, United States

Frisco is a ghost town in Beaver County, Utah, active as a mining camp from 1879 to 1929. What remains are ruins: a single-storey log building with a collapsed roof of grey splintered planks, an open doorway and one square window, and a stone building with two tall narrow openings in its crumbling masonry walls. The cemetery and charcoal kilns are the only areas open to visitors.

Frisco was established in the 1870s after miners discovered large silver deposits. The town boomed during the 1880s when the Horn Silver Mine became one of the world's richest, and a railroad connection brought supplies and shipping access.

The town takes its name from the nearby San Francisco Mountains. The cemetery and remaining stone structures show how residents built a community here, though it quickly became known for its saloons and gambling establishments rather than family life.

Access to Frisco is limited to the cemetery and the charcoal kilns, which have been listed in the National Register of Historic Places since 1982, because mining resumed at the site in 2002. The town area lies at the Frisco Summit on Utah State Route 21, on the eastern slope of the San Francisco Mountains, at an elevation of 6,500 feet. The ground is sandy and uneven, with loose planks and debris around the ruined buildings.

The 1885 cave-in of the Horn Silver Mine was felt in Milford, nearly 25 km away, where windows shattered. The mine was an open pit 900 feet deep braced with timbers. No one died because the night shift was evacuated before the collapse.
