In 1953, Mark A. Smith organized the first-ever Jeep Jamboree across the Sierra Nevada Mountains by way of the old Rubicon Trail. Often referred to as the founder of modern day off-road travel, Mark A. Smith has played an integral part in establishing the Jeep brand as the “Go Anywhere, Do Anything” brand it is today.

Below is a video from Pearse Umlauf, Vice-President and General Manager, of Jeep Jamboree USA interviewing Mark A. Smith from questions provided by Jeep Jamboree participants.
