Cecil and Rupert Carveth (formerly of Clarke Town-ship) had just spent a cold and arduous week on Northern Alberta’s storied Edson Trail. When they got back to their log cabin in the wide open and vast Grande Prairie region, they were tired and hungry. They knew it was December, but it wasn’t until a week later when they went to the small nearby settlement of Grande Prairie that they found out they had reached home on Christmas Day.
