Gilbert located in the Twisp River Valley of Okanogan County WA.
The mining camp of Gilbert was settled in the mid part of the 1890's, as a result of the mining boom that occurred in the area. At one time Gilbert had a dozen buildings.
Today only one cabin is still standing that dates back to the GIlbert era. The collapsed ruins of a second cabin sits nearby.
It was reported these structures were lost to the 2018 Gilbert Complex Fire.
