Why use a Roof Top Tent (RTT)?

Camping is supposed to be fun, but sometimes it isn’t…..

Setting up or breaking down a ground tent in the rain is one of the least enjoyable things you can do in the outdoors (aside from getting eaten by a bear).

Weather is the primary reason that we made the switch to a roof top tent, but what are some of the other reasons?

First and foremost, COMFORT!! Roof top tents have extremely comfortable, self contained mattresses, and there is no air mattress to blow up. There is also no air mattress to deflate when packing for home, or worse yet, to deflate unexpectedly in the middle of the night when you’re supposed to be sleeping.

Comfortable temperatures are also easier to achieve with RTT’s. Being off the ground helps keep you warmer, but being off the ground also makes air flow easier for when it’s sweltering outside.

The advantage of being elevated also helps keep pests out. Setting up a tent on the ground is an open invitation to every critter in the forest.

Finally, setup and take down is considerably easier and faster with a roof top tent. When we camp, we want to get straight to the fun. Spending 30 minutes setting up a ground tent is not what we call fun, and trying to fold up a damp and dirty ground tent when it’s time to go home is even less fun.

We hope this blog entry is helpful to anybody who is on the fence about roof top tents. We made the switch years ago, and there is no turning back now.
