History of Ault

During the mid to late 1800s, the Trappers’ Trail was located north of Forts Lupton, St. Vrain, and Vasquez but south of Fort Laramie. In addition to trappers, other groups utilized the trail such as miners, settlers, and soldiers. Settlers utilized the adjacent grasslands for farming and ranching. By 1870, there were enough people in the area to attract the Water Supply and Storage Company who provided a critical water supply via ditch system to potato and sugar beet farmers.
