    Let’s be honest; Roof Top Tent- Yay or Nay?

    I was skeptical too and that's why I didn't buy a condensation mat. If I do another cold/wet trip later this year I will just try and find some rubber matting from home depot. or simular.

    Let’s be honest; Roof Top Tent- Yay or Nay?

    That's and absolute bargain! I didn't get any snow maybe a little sleet but it was was 26-38ºF most nights of that trip and even when it didn't rain the bottom the mattress was quite wet but the top and sides was dry. I don't find the thickness of the mattress is problem, it's the firmness. I...

    Let’s be honest; Roof Top Tent- Yay or Nay?

    I will add my 2c to this discussion. After many years of just using a small back packing ground tent(Currently a Big Agnes Copper Spur HV) I got a Tepui Ayer Explorer last November. 92% of the time I travel totally alone, I try to go quick, light and minimalist as possible. A few reasons I...

    North Rim Grand Canyon - Late June/Mid July

    For some reason I didn't record it on Gaia so I am just going off photo time stamps. I did Point Sublime Rd from just north of the visitors centre, which is the quickest but hardest way but still easy compared to a lot of trails, I did it all in 4HI. I also stop a lot to take photos and when I...

Ultimate Campgrounds is great because it has the most national park, national forest, state...
