Gebo is a ghost town located in Hot Springs County in the U.S. state of Wyoming. It is located about 11 miles (18 km) north of Thermopolis. The town was established as a coal town in 1907 alongside the nearby camps of Crosby and Kirby. It was named after Samuel Wilford Gebo who established the Owl Creek Coal Company and the first mine in the area after immigrating to America from Canada. Mining remained active until 1938. At its height, over 20000 people lived in the area, mostly miners and their families, making Gebo briefly the largest town in the county.
