Just up Castle Creek Road from Aspen, Colorado is the extinct silver mining town of Ashcroft, at an elevation of 9,521 feet in the Elk Mountains of Pitkin County, originally founded as Castle Forks City in the spring of 1880. On May 12, 1975, Ashcroft was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, about the time this photograph was taken. This vantage point from Castle Creek Road toward Castle Peak (14,279’) and Conundrum Peak (14,040’) shows one of the original ranch outbuildings and snake rail fence, an historically significant, zigzag-patterned, split-wood structure used in North America since the 1600s.
