The Story
Ashcroft was a rather large town during the height of the silver mining
industry that was reaching its height before the US developed the gold
standard. Then it went bust. Stuart Mace purchased this land and kept it
pristine. It is a truly remarkable place. Imagine what it must have been
like 300 years ago before the arrival of the white man. Today you can probably
see and experience a land that is just that pristine, thanks to the Mace
family and the Aspen Historical Society for keeping it that way. This drive
of about 18 miles is a MUST for anyone who visits the Aspen area. I hope
you will enjoy these photos. Remember, all photos are copyrighted. Contact
