Charlie Ed and the Sturgeon Moon
Charlie Ed and the Sturgeon Moon
In 1926, the circus made a visit to a bustling community in the Canadian Rockies, while unloading the elephants featured in the Wells-Floto circus' show, a stampede resulted in the most unlikely wanderers exploring the Kootney woods.
For one brief moonlit passage, Charlie Ed belonged to no circus, no road, and no human hand. Beneath the Sturgeon Moon, he wandered the Kootenay forest, an unlikely traveler moving through a landscape that would remember him long after the wilderness gave him back.
