Welcome to Aspen-Gerbaz ...
Although we found mention of Aspen-Gerbaz during our research, we have little information about it.<1> Given the context of how Aspen-Gerbaz was mentioned, we believe that it was a community rather than a locale or some type of landmark. We have done a cursory search and if it was a community, we haven't been able to find any evidence that it still exists..
While we are confident that Aspen-Gerbaz was located in Pitkin County, we don't know its actual location within the county.
We've added Aspen-Gerbaz to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. We would especially like to find the location of Aspen-Gerbaz - knowing its coordinates, we can explore things like its relationship to neighboring communities, nearby cemeteries, etc. If you can help us with Aspen-Gerbaz, please Contact Us.
Time Zone: The area where we believe that Aspen-Gerbaz might be (or was) located is in the Mountain Time Zone (MST/MDT) and observes daylight saving time
We believe that Aspen-Gerbaz would be found within the (970) area code.

Footnotes ...
| <1> | If we encounter the name of what might be a community, our methodology is to add that name to our Gazetteer. For example, we might find a sentence like "He went north past Aspen-Gerbaz and then turned west". While Aspen-Gerbaz could be some kind of landmark, we think that it's more likely to be a community. We've added Aspen-Gerbaz as a placeholder with the hope that we'll be able to add more information in the future. Just as a reminder: Our definition of a community is rather broad and includes those places (or areas) where several families lived and had a name which identified that place. For example, you might hear somebody say that they are going over to Miller Creek to see Pete ... Miller Creek is just a gas station and a couple of homes at the crossroads. While it might not be on the map, everybody in the area knows it by that name. Places of interest include buildings at a crossroad, several families clustered in a hollow or maybe the location of a way station. It also includes places like mines, lumber camps, ferry crossings, etc. The community might still exist, is now gone or only existed for just a short period of time. Also keep in mind that Aspen-Gerbaz could have been on the original document by mistake, misspelled, the original/alternate name of a community that we've listed elsewhere or was placed in the wrong county. Sometimes a post office or train station would have a different name than the community where it's located, so two names might be referring to the same community - we're working to straighten it all out. |
