About Ashton
- Ashton was founded in 1906, the year the first scheduled train arrived, and is named for William Ashton, chief engineer of the Oregon Short Line.
- Seed potatoes were first grown as a crop around Ashton in 1920, and the area became known for them.
- The first American Dog Derby sled race ran from West Yellowstone to Ashton on March 4, 1917.
- Four trout rivers flow within 10 miles of town: the Henrys Fork, Fall River, Teton River and Warm River. Upper and Lower Mesa Falls are on the Henrys Fork nearby.
Farm Ground, Town Homes and Recreation Property
Ashton is a farm town of about 949 people (2020 census) that also sits at the doorway to the forest and the Mesa Falls country. Buyers here may be looking at a modest home in town, an irrigated farm with outbuildings, or a cabin on acreage up the river.
Those are three very different markets. A farm is compared on its land and improvements, while a cabin is compared with other recreation property where access, water and views drive the price. Using the wrong pool of sales can throw a value off badly.
