Here’s another story with images about the Bountiful Jeep Posse. This appeared in the May 1948 issue of Outdoor Life. Interestingly, this article summarizes the environmental history and purpose behind the creation of the Bountiful Jeep Posse.

August 1969 Nat Geographic Tour Jeep Pics

• CATEGORIES: Features, Magazine This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

In August of 1969 National Geographic published a lengthly story on the state of Colorado. Near the end of the article is a photo overlooking Ouray with a few tour jeeps in the foreground.

I had hoped the FC-Tour Jeep that was depicted was mine, so I bought the issue on eBay, But, a couple clues indicate it is Craig’s tour jeep. Other tour jeeps shown are the white CJ-6, the red topless wagon, and the Commando tour jeep.

Jeep Quilt in Salt Lake City

John’s wife Anne spotted this jeep-themed quilt at a Salt Lake City quilt show. I am still waiting on my jeep quilt from my wife (to be fair, she has no time for quilting these days and no doubt she is waiting on me to finish projects for her).
