Discover Fall Wheelin’ with the Jeep Jamboree

by Off Road Report on August 23, 2007

Fall is one of the best times of year to break out your Jeep and hit the trails. And Jeep Jamborees are a fun way to go off road, meet some cool people and generally have a good time. Most Jamboree events are short weekend adventures that feature trail ratings from mild to wild.

Jeep Jamborees date way back to 1953 when 4×4 pioneer Mark A. Smith organized the first-ever Jeep Jamboree and voyaged across the Sierra Nevada Mountains by way of the old Rubicon Trail. In 1954, Willys Motors — then manufacturer of Jeep vehicles — became involved with the adventure, and Jeep Jamborees have been an off-road tradition ever since.
