After many years of considering the options for my camping trips to the backcountry in Canada with my UTV, I think I may have the answer.
It’s a combination of a tent and a hammock (in my mind) with the best of both worlds. It keeps you up off the ground like a hammock but is stable and roomy like a tent. The only obvious downside is the weight and size.
This is no problem if your car camping or like me, have a UTV / Side x Side to haul it around with.
The build quality is good with fully taped seams and chunky zippers. Esme and I easily slept in the cot in comfort, especially with my new Therm-a-Rest Basecamp XL mat, which fit perfectly!
I topped that off with my Canadian Forces down sleeping bag and I was very comfortable even though the temperature dropped to below freezing.
I think this is a great piece of gear for the right purpose and I’m very glad I bought it. I will be reviewing the tent cot again in a few years to let you know how the wear and tear aspect of the unit goes.

1M views! Congrats Michael & Esme. It is a pleasure to see you two enjoying the outdoors.
Thanks Ruth! 👍
Those are great, I've used one for years, always kept one in the back of my Jeep. I was always ready to camp at anytime. Good video, thanks.
They are great if you have a means to transport them :)
Thank you for sharing your experiences. The cot looks very comfortable and it's setup doesn't look that hard to put up. Keep enjoying it.
Thanks Guitar Lover! 👍
At last. A bloke who allows his dog to share his comfort. proper bloke.
Thanks Jackie!
..what's a 'bloke'?
Jackie Muir i use a cot for camping as well....and my dog shares it with me.

Thanks Scott for clearing that up! :)
Great Video with the Drone! I love my tent cot! Easiest way to set it up is on its side.
Yup - I learned that after this video :D
I was keeping my poles in the bag you've just shown me what those sleeves down below are for!!! Cheers.
Glad I was of help! :D
I plan on buying 3. One for each my husband and myself. One for food and equipment. The homeless situation here in Illinois is crazy. We were homeless for about 13 months and had to borrow a tent from my boss. It was a 3 man and incredibly small. These would be a terrific solution should that ever comes up again. I learned this- never think it won't happen to you. I am a certified adoptions caseworker for Illinois. Our rent increased 27% along with loosing my job in the c19 year. It happens to the best of us. 3 of these would be ideal. M. Illinois.
New subscriber, very happy one! Im a fellow Canadain. Recently my grown son and i have bonded over camping all seasons, hot tenting so on. Your set up was so informative since my back is sensitive to ground. Your the first one ever! To show such a great system. Thank you so much for sharing. Will look forward to catching up, cheers!
Hi Tina, thats such a wonderful story and I'm glad you both are enjoying the outdoors together! Welcome to the channel and I hope you find more videos of interest! Best wishes Michael & Esme :)
Michael there is a peace in your videos, thanks for sharing and thank Esme for her thoughts
You're most welcome!
I've had one of these for about 6 years now, Mine is a Kookaburra brand and it only had 2 legs instead of 4 and no multi-section roof poles. I use it for car camping mostly, and I have a big tarp that I put over the roof of the wagon, attach to the wheel arches on the far side with bungy cord. I have a line of paracord from the roofrack to a tree for a ridge pole and I just tie the two corners out to make an awning that covers one side of my car and gives me a large covered area along side the car to set up the tent/bed under. I have some mobility issues, so for a disabled man to be able to set up a dry camp with a bed up off the ground and a 12x12 covered area by himself in about the time it takes to set up a 2 person dome tent is awesome. Can't recommend these camp cots highly enough, they're a gamechanger for car camping, touring and road trips. Looks like you could easily incorporate a similar thing with a tarp over the top of your UTV.
Hey Digger - that sounds like a great setup! I think you might be on to something with using the vehicle as part of the shelter! I'm glad you don't let a physical disability get in the way of enjoying the freedom of the outdoors! It's an inspiring story my friend. Best wishes from Canada!
Interesting concept Michael. I suppose you could set up a tarp for additional living space. Will be interested to hear your thoughts after some use in different weather. Thanks for sharing
Hi Mark - hope you are enjoying spring in Canada :) I'd like to expand the fly for more living space for sure. I'm also thinking of a gear hammock for underneath to to hold smaller items. Really enjoyed your recent saw and hatchet review!
You are a ok in my book. Thank you for being a good companion to your dog. Bless you.
Thank you - thats very kind :)
Thank you for the review! I am extra glad that you reviewed this with sleeping with your dog because I am looking at getting one so that I can camp with my dog and I wanted to make sure there will be enough room
Plenty of room with a medium size dog :)
Thanks. I enjoyed that. I can see how car/truck campers could get some good service out of one of those. It would be good at state parks, music festivals, or anything that one can drive up to the campsite. Love the Faithful Companion too.
Yup - not sure why I've never tried them before - makes sense to me now :) Esme (my dog) loves the trips and gets so excited when it time to go!
I've looked at them online many times, but already having more gear than I use now I can't justify the cost. I guess I need to go tear some stuff up. The wife will be pleased with me. She gets matching slush funding budget wise. Maybe I can talk her into tearing some of her shit up.
Use mine for music festivals nothing better
I have this same tent/cot and I love it. There are a few considerations I'd add, prefaced by an introduction: I'm close to 63 years old, I'm 6'-5" tall and 250+ pounds. I've broken my back twice. I've always slept on the ground under a tarp, but it's getting to be a challenge to get up from the ground. This cot/tent has been a great solution. After a couple practices, I can set it up in about 60 seconds. It accommodates my size easily and I can now easily stand up from it. I can have it as open or closed as the weather dictates. At about $180 including rain cover and shipping, I consider it a great value.
I'm pretty much in exactly the same boat as you except & little younger & a little shorter. I've taken to hammock camping & I honestly feel better when I get out of a hammock than my own bed. I like the Kamp-Rite too & still want to try it tho
Hi Wayne - that's a great story and it shows if you are determined to keep active and outdoors you will find a way that works! Once you set it up a bunch of times it does get easier. I even leave my sleeping pad inside now - to save packing it away. Best wishes Michael
Hammock camping is great and I still do that when hiking trips. Tent cot is great if you have mechanical transport - they are heavy to move around - lol
The Emporium can you get all settled in your shoes are off then you got to go pee lol
wayne lewis you answered every question I had ! Thanks I'm 6'4" 250lbs also . I'm ordering mine soon !
Thanks for taking us along ! I think that cot would be a big big to put on my ATV, but a good idea for my father and brother who have SXS's. thanks again !
No problem - I use a Hennessy hammock sometime too - much smaller and lightweight - but nice and comfortable for back country camping! Thanks again for commenting!
I love your set up!!! I can't imagine there is another tent that is better than that for one person and a dog. You are living life!!!
Thanks :) It works for me!
Very cool product, beautiful dog
Thanks - I love her very much!
7:34 "Let's take a look where my feet are." And there's a smiling dog 🤣 Epic.
:D - she loves camping.
💖 love this video! What a great sleep system to go camping with!!
It really is! 👍
Great video Mike. This actually looks quite comfortable, and is a breeze to set up. Thanks for the info.
Hi Fra - I really like it and have used it quite a few times now. I've had some of the best outdoor sleeps in this!
I love how Esme lays down on you when you tell her to go to her space, lol!
Hahaha - Shes a funny dog - She always makes me smile!
That tent seems to be perfect for my needs. Thanks
Glad to be of assistance!
What a lovely natured dog. Truly mans best friend.
Thanks - She's my best friend! 🐶
I'm glad it is long enough for my dog or other stuff. thanx 4 review.
Thanks you for watching :)
dude,great video and the dog is even greater,thanks...tony d!
Hey Tony - thanks! And Esme is always great to camp with!
Really enjoyed your video , felt like I was camping too, nice tent and nice to have your dog with you, beautiful scenery, Im subscribed
Thanks for the sub mdcebu! Welcome to the channel!
Thanks for your video. The tent cot is a step above the small tent I keep in our UTV. The up off the ground situation is better for not drawing the cold from the ground into you. Cheers from Utah!
Hi Brad - Nice to meet another UTV camper! :) Best wishes from Alberta!
And bugs in warmer weather!!
Nice vid. You seem like a chilled dude. Thanks.
Thanks Jelly Bean 👍
Nice video. I purchased one of these about a year ago. I wish they would take a cue from the Australians and make it out of ripstop canvas as opposed to 190T Nylon.
I think there is always a battle between what the customer will pay and the quality you can make an item for. The Australian swag bag type tents are expensive - but I agree - perhaps a more expensive version with better spec materials would sell enough to make a profit for them.
literally just ordered this, cant wait to test it out
Gratz Rossco - very cool!
Longshoreman and since the pandemic I've been sleeping in my car instead of the bunk house. South Texas has moody weather hot cold windy to no wind and hot. I've put regular window screen on my car doors but I can bare the heat and humidity any longer. Video and comments convinced me to order this tent I too can't wait for my order to arrive.
Jr Ben Vallejo you won’t regret it mate, I love in scotland and we get all types of weather here! And although people don’t think it we do get incredibly hot days lol! I’ve had this tent out in literally all weather from snow and freezing cold to blistering heat, it’s been great
I use this on camping trips in the boat and it is amazing!! I top it off with a memory foam pad and also can fit my suitcase at the end of the bed.
That's a great idea! 👍
This is still the best video I ever watched, so relaxing.
Its my best performing video - I still don't know why! 😃
@@TheEmporiumOutdoors 👍
Another thing you could do for inclement weather is to set the Kamp-Rite cot up between a couple of trees and then hang a lightweight tarp off a ridge-line tied to the them. You could easily adjust the height of the tarp for varying exposure and give yourself an awning to protect the opening of the cot where you sit, enter and exit. The tarp would give you added weather protection and more space out of the rain. Just an idea. Nice video.
Thats an awesome idea - one one I will definitely try ext trip!
looks like fun , where does your dog sleep ?He seemed to like the tent; I have never seen. a tent cot looks like a good idea
Exactly what I do. The rain fly that comes with it certainly keeps you dry, but it obstructs way too much air circulation. The tarp overhead keeps me dry even when I have my tent cot completely open.
I was thinking similarly that a simple tarp rig could be set up between the cot and the utv to create a nice space for relaxation, cooking, etc.
Was thinkin you could fastens a piece of 3/4 inch sheet of plywood to the back of your UTV and place your tent cot on it...gets you off the ground...just thinkin,cheers
Thanks for letting the dog in made my day. And I am sure the dogs.
Hahaha - she very lovable and funny - she makes every trip unique :)
looks like something useful for a motorcycle trip. Have you seen the prices for the little motorcycle popup trailers.
I like the way you use your pioneer to get out and have these adventures. Its got me thinking of getting something similar. Also, the drone shots are a nice touch - one of the reasons I'll sub to a channel is because people like you making the effort to put together a visually interesting video. Thanks for sharing!
kanukkarhu - Thanks buddy - I appreciate the comment!
Thanks for the demo. Looks good. All the best.
Anytime my friend!
Dog is funny . Thanks for making this!
I've got that cot, the extra wide one. Purchased it about 10 years ago, and it's still as good as new. Use it all the time, but would suggest you get the self inflating camp mattress, or something similar.
Hi True Texan - I use the Therm-a-rest base camp mattress that works really well. Thanks for commenting!
Nice product. It's good to be off the ground and this is an affordable alternative in camp ideas.
Hi Walter - Its great for muddy conditions and allows people with limited mobility to camp comfortably too.
Michael, thanks for sharing. First time viewer. Your Esme is a great dog; I laughed out loud when she got ya!
Thank you and welcome to the channel DanielinLaTuna - I hope you have time to enjoy some more of my videos :). Esme is a fun companion and makes all the trips so much more fun for me :)
nice job...great review
I appreciate it BIll - thanks :)
Interesting concept, this looks great for summer camping with dog. For winter it will need a skirt to hold the air and also allow for storage of boots, stove, jackets etc. Here in northwestern Canada, it can chill things above ground quickly with a -30 something breeze blowing underneath.... And waking up and lighting a gas stove for coffee is great if there's enough room in the tent fly.
I plan to test it in Winter here too. We typically get average winter temps from -20c to -30c but it can go all the way down to -40c+. I agree the addition of a skirt would be the way to go. I'll be sure to make a video of my first attempts!
A video would be awesome. I'm thinking of trying one of these for car camps as standing up from the ground is getting tougher, but I'm not ready to quit camping. Thanks and will sub!
I like your dog and the drone shots, thanks for sharing!
Np - Thanks for watching!
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Tommy!
I've had a Kamp-Rite cot for years. No better way to go car camping. I'm always surprised by how many people come up to me at campgrounds and ask me about it. I use binder clips to hold the rain fly back.
Hi John, it foes turn few heads thats for sure! It very convenient for quick setups as you say. Thats a good idea about the clips! Thanks for the comment! Best wishes from Canada!
Sasquatch picnic basket... VERY cool nonetheless 😆
Loved this and love your dog. I will be getting one as well. I am in Canada also (Edmonton, Alberta) Cheers
Hey Martin - Yup you are close by that's for sure! They are a great quick tent for this type of weather - keeps you out of the wet and mud. I'd recommend taking a look at the TETON Quick Tent Cot system also as a comparison. 🇨🇦
@@TheEmporiumOutdoors Thanks Michael. I have been watching a lot of your videos over the last 20 hours and saw you mention you are in Alberta. For some reason I thought you were in Ontario. Anyway I really do enjoy your videos and continue to learn a lot. :)
Hey Martin, Im just outside of Edmonton also - Glad you are enjoying the videos!!
Cute Dog. Looks like she is more excited and cant wait
no more to find her place under that tent
She gets very excited to go camping and loves tents - just like me! 🐶
Esme is the most adorable doggie I've ever seen, those short little legs are too cute!
Thanks Nel - I love her very much :)
gears to dream of , i like the tent cot system , i'm old and handicap , but adore nature , cant get up from and stand from the floor.
Hi Patrice - The cot tent is a great camping system for people with mobility challenges - I have more videos on them on my channel. Hope that helps.
I love the idea but with the lads I go camping with they would pick it up with me in it and god knows what they would do
great video
Too funny - that would be an awesome trick to play on a sleeping buddy ;)
The Emporium not as bad as what you can do with the air beds I mean lilos.
L - You mean waking up in the middle of a lake?
Tell them to get over it!
Nice video
Glad Esme is enjoying the tent ⛺️😃
She loves it - she goes and lies it it even when its not bed time :)
I bought this last year! Best tent for solo car/truck camping!
Cool! 👍
I had a Kamp-Rite extended version, I loved it because it kept me off the ground and could store equipment and still sleep comfortable. I didn't like how it was alledged to support 200+ pounds, yet with 15 pound hiking bag with supplies included in weight plus my the 175 lbs, tore around edges. The rain tarp I had to pay extra for kept me dry except for condensation build up, not the best there, ended up rigging a tarp to block rain yet remain breathable and have a steady breeze. I would not recommend for camping longer than a week stretch at a time unless you reinforce the bottom canvassing and an extra tarp to tie to trees for rain blocking.
Very interesting! I found the storage bag wore through in short order and I have heard of the condensation issues before. The TETON cot tent I use now is rated for 600lb and is bigger and packs up smaller. Might be something to look at.
thats a great point, but being so small, when you are stuck in there multiple hrs because of weather it sure makes sense . good comment
I love that he brings his dog in as well ! 💖👍
Thanks!
Erin Vaughn Dude!! That's his wife!!!!
@@jonmacdonald5345 , you couldn't ask for a cuter, more loyal wife.
Erin Vaughn check out Mathew Posa...
So do I.
Thank you for helping me decide on a cot tent as an alternative.
Happy to help!
Beautiful and lovable dog. Been looking to buy one of these cot tents. Thanks for an actual demo.
Thanks Darrell! Glad you found it useful!
Dogs like " wow cool now where are you sleeping tonight:?
LOL - she can be a bed hog at times - but she knows her place ;)
John Hill. Mine would be right in there with me...No man, I'll deal with it...No dog...My life sucks!!!...lol...BTW...I have 2 older guys that go everywhere with me!...dogs, I mean!
Fuuunny!
John Hill 😂😂😂
น
lol, that dog! acts just like mine would have!
She's a funny dog sometimes - those eyes are just so communicative to me :) I love her very much :)
Lets see more videos with the Kamp-Rite Cot... I just bought one 2 weeks ago. I love it!
Congratulations on the Kamp-Rite. I have more videos on the channel featuring the Kamp-Rite and other camp cots.
my husband and I always enjoyed camping, we always had a big tent and our dog always went camping with us. Penny was a mix and he would sit up on his back legs and just look around him. a couple saw him and had to take his picture. He sat like that for a good half hour. I love Esme, she is beautiful and fun to watch. thanks for sharing, I love to watch them but I freeze watching you two in all that snow.
Thanks Janet - Penny sounds like an awesome pup! Thanks for checking out the video! Best wishes Michael & Esme!
Liked your video bud, good work. Looks like a pretty nice little piece of kit, one idea though. Why not scrap that rain pod thing and get a decent sized tarp. Say a 10' or 12'. Then you suspend it Basha style over the sleeper. Just an idea. I'm a Canadian temporary living in the US, always nice to see home.
Yup - that would be the best solution as many people talk about getting condensation with the supplied rain cover. Good idea! Hope you get to go home soon! :)
The cheap traps are noisy,canvas tarp way better
Thank you for such a great video on this. I hate you...because I want one so bad. LOL...I'm doing hammock camping with my Grizzly. Really easy to carry my whole camp plus hunting or fishing gear in season. BUT, I really wanted to go with a Kamp-Rite system. Only, I would have had to use a trailer. Actually, maybe I still will. Think of the options. Ugh...here I go again.
Yea - it's a step up from a hammock in my book - much more room and not as location specific (no tree's) :). Maybe the lightweight model would be a good option for an ATV? They are lighter and pack down smaller. I haven't tried one yet but........ :D
I love any outdoor video with a dog in it. Good job!
Thanks Alienxyt!
Nice video, good demonstration of your new tent.......I loved your dog.
Thank you Mr Johnson :)
Gotta be the sweetest most adorable dog I've seen! I usually refer to dogs as "MUTTS" but that dog looks to be a pleasant companion.
Thank you 😊
At least it didn't bark non stop get under foot and in the way. Idk if it shoved it's face in his food like other dogs on camping trips
Love that furr baby. Good on you.
Thanks Kip - she's a keeper!
Great Vid"
Thanx for sharing.
Your welcome :)
I have just found your channel and really enjoyed your review.
I look forward to seeing more.
Thanks Joe - I try and post a video a week - but last few weeks I've been super busy but should be back to schedule soon!
I love your dog, very cute. Does this tent come in a slightly larger size? My dog is pretty big and I want him to be in there with me. I like this tent idea because it's up off the ground.
Hi Eric - It does come in a double - kamprite.com/shop/tents/tri-fold-series/kamp-rite-double-tent-cot/ and also the lighter weight model - kamprite.com/shop/tents/collapsible-series/ctc-double/ - Hope that helps!
***{ yes .. also in double size .. which is better size more space for your dog }***
@@TheEmporiumOutdoors thank you, it helped greatly. :)
Here in Florida, the tent-cot also works as a solar oven. LOL
Don't be an ass. If you don't like cot-style tents, then leave.
@@Sig721Tau pretty sure that was a joke, relax
haha I did a bike packing trip in July in Fl with a single layer tent I can say they get hot as an ez bake oven, but Mosquito's would suck you dry without a tent.
So you could cook hot dogs and make hot pizza with it in Florida?
Haha. What do you use when camping then
I’m in love!!! Any man that lets his dog 🐕 move in and get comfortable, is the only kind of man worth knowing.
God bless you. And God bless your best friend!
❤️🙏🏼🐕
Thank you - that a very kind comment! 👍🐶

Love it and your videos and your 🐕!!
Thanks Maria!
I love Esmie. Great video. With all those angles (and drone footage), how did you manage to keep your truck out of the shot?! :P
Never mind the truck - you cant even see the Walmart from those angles!
Haha, I loved Esmee, typically what a dog would do. She's cute. 😀
It's actually a covered stretcher
I checked out th price of the tentcot, it's quite expensive -at least here in the Netherlands- it like 600 euro
Bum system. A dome tent a better choice for le$$ ; has more interior room , headroom , vestibule , useful fly & so much more.
Looks comfortable for a man and his dog
About as good as it gets for outdoor sleeping :D
One Dog Night?
We have a couple of these , I string up a tarp over it like a leanto and put my gear and shoes under the cot . I put a small piece of carpet on the ground to keep the dirt out of it . With the tarp over it you can have the screens open even if it rains . Thumbs up !
Cool idea Joe - very inventive!
Thanks for the video first one that’s shown the inside.thank you sir 👍
Anytime John!
The Dog is Thinking... "This is NICE....where are YOU sleeping ?"
Indeed she is :D
“lets take a look at my feet”
*sees the dog*
CUTEE
Hehehe - thanks!
Hey I just found your channel I was actually looking for tent review to see what one I want this tent seems real comfy and I could fit in my dog as well! I look forward to seeing more!!
Thanks Frank - Much more to see! 😃
I like this! Thanks for the review.
Thanks for watching Jerri!
Your dog is to funny.
Thank you - She looks funny too but she's so much fun :)
Esme no... lol... love it 👍👍👍
Hahaha - thanks :D
The ultimate for me would be if it had a bit of room in folded up position, so you could leave your sleeping bag/pad setup inside. This is one of the things I like about a rooftop tent, they have room for sleeping gear to store with it. Would save even more setup time. Otherwise I do really like this tent setup.
I love your dog the most! 😂😍
Thanks you :D
You make it look fun more informative than others I watch
Thanks very much Sean!
So you've been there then
I was laughing so hard to see a full grown man make it more difficult than what it was designed.
Well - Glad it put a smile on your face 👍🍺
I saw the Original version the first time. Only has two legs. Did not think much of it.
But this newer larger version looks nice.
I think your straps are a bit off. They need to go to the bottom of the inside legs.
WHAT? No little bits of string to tie the fly up... BAH!
Velcro... not near the screens!
Read some reviews about the fly leaking in heavy rain. Need to seam seal!
What many do not understand is you can get soaked without rain.
You breathe out a lot of water during the nite and it condenses on the tent fabric,
leaving you quite wet in the morning.
Nice review & nice dog.
Thanks Elizabeth - I think you are right they have evolved somewhat. I heard about the condensation problem also - but never personally suffered with it with this cot tent. Perhaps it's because I'm pretty far north. Thanks for the comment!
Velcro works wonders for tie backs on your rain cover door area, etc. Good video, nice cot/tent set up.
HI Nancy - thanks for the tip!
Looks like a very nice trip to the Country side. I wish it were enough secure down here in South America to go onto a similar trip. But I have taken similar trips like that up in the USA specially to Idaho and Wyoming, and believe me I know how it feels. Thanks for the video I also liked the tent.
Thanks for the kind comment! 👍
you a chipclip or a couple clothes pins to hold door open
A few people have commented the same - great minds think alike!
TAD GUGGISBERG ....... I have the Double version of this exact brand........and EXACT same complaint of no way to roll up , and retain the rain cover"........what a serious poor design. By the way, I am in Australia and these are like over $500 AUD to purchase !......so not cheap
I feel like on a cold night you could hear some large rocks up by the fire before you turn in for the night and tuck them up under the cot to keep you nice and toasty
That idea has come out a few times - I might try it one day!
Great video! Love your dog! Too cute!
Thanks Mario - glad you enjoyed the video. Esme is a great friend! :)
The sound on this video is amazing.
Thanks Mathew!
Esme is incredibly beautiful.
Thank you very much :)
All I can say is....lucky we got the movie to go with the sound affects once you were inside the cot, otherwise it may have seemed a raunchier review than it actually was :) (no Ezmay no....wait until I have finished filming)
Hahahaha thats too funny :D
And awh the doggie is just adorable... 💛🐾
Thank you 😊🐶
great video. I stake down all sides on my tent cot with bankline for more stability when moving around and uneven ground
Thats a good idea Mark. Bank line has so many uses.
thanks for esponding so quickly. I never use the fly because of that. I pitch a quick lightweight tarp from my vehicle overr the cot tent staked down against the wind - all weather. I have a small chair & table to cook out of the weather too. blessings to you
appears to me setting up the cot would be easier ......setting it up on its side exposing the underbelly ........ this would allow straps and hooks to be done up without crawling on the ground ......... simply role it on its legs when all is secured .......... just saying looks like it would be easier ......S
Stewart - You are correct - thats the way I did it after this video. Made a lot more sense!
I've considered the camp cote and seeking out one as we blog ......... live in Canada just outside of Toronto, Ontario ......... two blocks from University of Guelph......... any input .......S
The other camp cot to take a look at is the TETON XXL Quick Tent and matching cot. Its a good combo and can be used separately as wither a tent and cot to a tent cot. I have a few videos on my channel showing the use.
No way; a tent is bette. A good wind will tip it.
Yea, not so much - It's very stable :)
Eh. I had a strong wind blow my tent down a rocky hill in the middle of the night with me and all my heavy gear inside. I had checked all 8 stakes before going to bed- only one held fast. Some winds just are not for camping in, no matter the gear.
@@TheEmporiumOutdoors is it heavy?
Mine has never blew off the top of my tonneau cover of my avalanche,I use the tailgate as a cooking area and a step up to my tent cot and sleep with my rifle underneath me just in case ,I've slept through down pours and snowstorms...cheers
You have such a beautiful dog my wife fell in love with her..lol
Hi David, tell your wife thank you :)
Yes.
Love the complementary drone shots
Thanks Isaac!
