1967 Snow Photo from Holbrook, Arizona

• CATEGORIES: Features, Old Images, Willys Wagons This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Given the winter weather, Colin thought this would be an appropriate photograph to post. He writes:

I have attached a photo taken in December, 1967, in Holbrook, AZ.  Arizona received record snowfall over the entire state, with Flagstaff receiving about 8 feet of snow over a 40 hour period.  The snow just about paralyzed the state.  The photo shows Arizona Highway Patrol Officer Paul Palmer sitting on the hood of Highway Patrol Officer Carlton Hill’s 1959 Jeep Station wagon.  Both Paul and Carlton (as well as myself) are retired and Carlton still has that Jeep wagon.  In that storm, Holbrook had about 3 ½ feet of snow.  In southern Arizona, where I was, we had about the same, 3 ½ feet.

Last weekend Hugh and his father enjoyed the last bits of good weather in their jeep. As you can see, they found a fun hill to climb and photograph. Hugh reports the cold has engulfed the midwest and, as of Friday, there was a foot of snow at his dad’s place.
