Fuji Jari, with a 105 drivetrain and Easton wheels.
I had one of these too, until a pickup took out the left chainstay (and my left MCL). It is such a nice riding bike. I'm on a Checkpoint now but I kinda miss the Jari.

Many happy rides to you, sir!

Thank you.
I have to say that I didn't have very high expectations considering it's a Fuji, was thinking I'd ride this for a while then sell it and move on to something nicer but I took it out for a shake down ride yesterday and was totally blown away by how great it rides, it handles amazingly well, feels great both grinding up a steep loose gravel climb, and bombing down the other side, so I hope to have it for a good few years.

Correct they're 650x48 Gravel King SK

Both pics were taken on Old Pedro Mountain Rd trail in Pacifica (colloquially known as Planet of the Apes). First pic is towards the top and second pic is towards the bottom.

I recently purchased an All-City Super-Professional and turned into a single speed gravel bike (I'm a glutton for abuse). Took it out on some Mt. Kisco gravel a few weeks ago. Loved it.
