Stories How I wish I could return, for so many reasons… April 6, 2018 Jonathan Koch Leave a comment It was 10 a.m. and almost 30 degrees when I stopped at Alderson on July 28, 2014. Two weeks later, fire would rip through this tinder dry townsite, once home to 125 hardy souls, leaving behind a smoking moonscape, and a scattering of cellar holes. I have revisited this glorious day many times in my memory since, and my fortuitous visit to this former village in the outback of southeastern Alberta. On days like today, how I wish I could return, for so many reasons. #forgottenalberta #ghosttown #alberta @cypresscounty A post shared by Jonathan Koch (@forgotten_alberta) on Apr 6, 2018 at 3:11pm PDT
