Eagle River division of the Denver d
Rio Grande Railroad, is the city of As
pen. For some years past Aspen has
been krown of aud talked about as a
very promising mining camp. Owing.
however. to the inaccessibility of the
country, slut in as it was on all sides,
but the west, by high mountain ranges
and almost impossible canons, travel
to and from the place was SO unpleas-
ant ard attended by SO many risks that
its growth was greatly retarded. Fifty
miles away from the railrrad, freights
| were high, and in the shipment of ores
nothing but the his hest grades could
be handled at profit. Notwithstand-
ing all these difficulties a slow but
steady progress was made, not only in
the hedeveIopmento its mineral resources
but in the building up of large and
substantial mining city, until no place
of its size in the State presents better
class of business blocks and residences
than does this city of the Roaring Fork
Valley.
Mineral was first discovered during
the year 1879. Rumors of new discov-
cries came to- the outside during the
winter of 1880, and long ere the snow
was melted from the mountain trails,
over which it was necessary to pass to
reach the place, the miner and adven-
turer were snowshoeing their way into
this promising country, and by early
spring townsite was laid out, cabins
erected and the work of development
begun.
From the snowshoe and handsled to
the burro and mule as pack animals;
from those to freight wagons, up to the
time when about the first of November,
1887, the whistle of the locomotive on
the D. & r. u. was first heard in Asp
en-; and now with railroad connection
with the outside world assured activity
in all branches is revived. The mer-
with renewed energy, begun the maxi
ing of our hopes of the past a reality of
the present.
So, kind readers, ! will leave you, as
I must be going to warm climes.
Your humble servant, s. B.
