Mountain Rides: Vintage Vehicles & Tales of the Wild West

Travel through the Rocky Mountains of Colorado and Wyoming in Mountain Rides, an evocative celebration of vintage vehicles, local stories, and the enduring spirit of the American West.

Written by Whitney Annetti with photography by John Annetti, this 2023 release introduces 20 longtime locals connected by a shared passion for classic automobiles and the landscapes they call home.

From iconic Wagoneers and Jeepsters to Broncos and Scouts, every vehicle carries a history shaped by mountain roads, changing seasons, and generations of adventure. Personal stories and striking photography reveal how these treasured machines preserve family memories, regional heritage, and a slower way of life.
