Off-road enthusiasts were touring the Bighorn Mountains and finding their own travel challenges along the way.
The Jeep Company does a number of Jeep Jamborees across the country each year, and this past weekend more than 100 Jeeps traveled the various back-roads around the Burgess Junction area.
A special use permit from the Bighorn National Forest was granted for the events and this year marks the 15th time the Jeep Jamboree has been held in the Bighorn Mountains.
Brian Donowho from Woodway, Texas, which is near Waco, says he’s participated in events like this one before and explains how the event works.

“A bunch of like minded jeepers get together and go exploring out on the trails. The nice thing about the Jamboree is as opposed to doing it yourself, is that you got a bunch of local guides, so one of the local Jeep clubs is participating along with the Jeep Jamboree USA organization to help organize and keep everybody heading in the right direction. It’s really fun, if you’ve never been in a 4-wheel drive vehicle at low range, crawling over rocks, then it’s something you need to experience.”
The Jeep Jamboree was last held in the Bighorn Mountains back in 2021.
