    Default Overlanding Arches-Canyonlands 1949



    https://collections.lib.utah.edu/det...n+juan+county+

    This is a home movie from a Virginia couple's trip out to Utah in 1949. The first 20min is mostly scenery, but at about 27 min a cj2a appears and there is some classic wheeling and 'overlanding' - nothing like a cj2a with street tires for overlanding (and a little dynamite!). Most of the overlanding looks to be in what is now Needles district of Canyonlands NP. I think some of the 4x4 road is elephant hill and the sandy wash with the Anasazi ruins is a trail I've run but can't remember the name also in Needles - video archive suggests Beef Basin which is possible but I am thinking something to the east of just a bit.
