A chuckwagon with four outriders led Edward Yellow Old Woman on his last ride up to the Big Ranch in the Sky.
It was a funeral procession the grizzled cowboy would have approved of. "Ed Olds", as he called himself on the chuckwagon trail, drove from 1935 to 1950 for outfits like J.J. Swain, and Bow River Ranch. He was a veteran Calgary Stampede chuckwagon competitor and two-time wild horse race champion, as well as taking winnings in steer decorating.
