The only source for this is a gazetteer, and this website tends to imply that it may be a mistake for Silver Mountain, California; at any rate I can't find any source for this, and it's not there on the topos at the coordinates given. Difficult to search due to the actual creek and the fact that there's more than one in the state. Mangoe (talk) 03:37, 20 May 2020 (UTC)

- Delete – the sources I found ([1], [2]) seem to be referring to the same place as Silver Mountain City under a different name. No evidence that this is or was ever a community. GNIS identifies 3 locales called "Silver Creek" in Alpine county: 2 creeks and a campground. It appears that no town existed under this name, and that some sources referred to Silver Mountain City as Silver Creek due to its location on the creek of that name. talk) 06:02, 20 May 2020 (UTC)]
