With hunting season rapidly approaching, many hunters and outdoorsmen across Western Canada are preparing to head out into the wild to catch their quarry this fall. All hunters, regardless of their location or hunting methods, require dry and warm shelter when heading out into the woods. Traditionally, this has meant camping in an ordinary ground tent, but hunters across Canada are increasingly choosing a new means of shelter – the Roof Top Tent.
Easily attached to the roof rack of almost any car, a Roof Top Tent provides plenty of advantages to all those exploring the outdoors – and hunters are no exception. A Roof Top Tent also provides an excellent option for those seeking to have a low-impact but comfortable camping experience. Roof Top Tents are much better for the fuel economy of your vehicle compared to towed trailers or RVs as they weigh far less. This makes owning a Roof Top Tent useful those seeking to save money and reduce environmentally harmful emissions. With all of these advantages, it comes as no surprise that camping, overlanding and hunting with a Roof Top Tent is becoming more and more popular across Canada and beyond.
Spending the night in a Roof Top Tent is much more enjoyable than sleeping on a traditional ground tent. Our Roof Top Tents are compatible with camping mattresses and foamies, but are comfortable even without these thanks to their built-in sleeping pads. Being up high also means you’re much more protected from moisture on the ground; not to mention uncomfortable tree roots or rocks – the bane of those camping on the ground.
Roof Top Tents are also much more durable than traditional ground tents, making them the ideal choice for hunters. With their hard-shell construction, Roof Top Tents both repel water and wind more effectively than ground tents. Given the unpredictable fall weather in Western Canada, this can make the difference between being able to stay out in the wild or having to head home early.
Our Auto Awnings are also very useful for hunters thanks to their versatility, ease of use and sturdy construction. Extending out from from your vehicle, our Auto Awnings give you a covered area to stay dry during the rain and provide shade from the sun. Our Auto Awnings also save you from having to set up tarps from a nearby tree, saving you time and hassle and opening up new places to set up – and you don’t have to worry about your awning blowing away in a light breeze! Our Auto Awnings provide an easier, more reliable, and more convenient way to give you a dry place to keep your gear when out hunting.
