| Ashcroft, Colorado, originally known as Castle Forks City and then Chloride until 1882, was a mining town located ten miles south of Aspen near Castle Creek, in Pitkin County. A few buildings remain standing as a testament to the town's past. The town's founding fathers developed a Miner's Protective Association and within two weeks, they had built a courthouse and laid out the town plan that included a saloon, jail, hotel, store, post office and cabins. |
