Big House 6
$479.96
Description

  The Big House 6 is a big deal for car campers and the perfect sized shelter for housing the whole family under one “roof.” Big enough for rainy afternoon card games under cover or for road trippin’ mountain bikers who prefer to stand up in their shelter while changing.

  The optional Accessory Vestibule (sold separately) can convert this roomy tent from a simple structure to a cavernous escape from the sun or an unexpected change in weather. Shelter Mode lets you pitch it as a covered shelter without the tent body, and the backpack-style carry bag makes lugging gear from the car to the campsite more convenient than ever.

  Footprint and vestibule sold separately. Shelter Mode requires footprint.

Colorado’s I
  Originally, I had a vision. It involved getting into a car with strangers.   The idea struck me a few weeks before I left for Colorado, where I was going to report on the state’s notorious Interstate 70 traffic. Each winter, I-70 makes headlines and stymies skiers attempting to drive from Denver and the urban Front Range to the dozen or...
The Gear Our Editors Loved in January
  We sought out warmer weather in Arizona, climbed freezing pitches in northern New Mexico, and ski-toured in Rocky Mountain National Park this January. Heres the gear that helped us start the year out right.   Eastpak Transverz suitcase ($140) I gifted this to my brother for Christmas, after traveling with him to Japan and feeling sorry to see him hoofing it...
Can Golf Be an Endurance Sport?
  How do you make the best of a golf addiction? Add running. That’s the formula contributor Alex Ward tried to perfect a few months ago, when he started figuring out a way to turn his rounds of golf into real exercise. Would golf be an endurance sport if he played sunrise to sunset? What if he wore running gear, carried...
Why Outdoor Gear from the 1990s Is Coming Back into Style 
  Today, I’m a 42-year-old dad with four kids. I work a 9-5 job, ski on the weekends, camp in the summer, drive a Tacoma…you get the picture. I’m essentially a cliched version of the middle-class outdoorsy American who’s floating along with the bunch.   But I promise I was much cooler when I was in my teens in the 1990s. I...
Do Couples That Ski Together Stay Together?
  Adventures can provide fuel for romance, but only if you know how to take what you learned in the mountains back home. Just ask Paddy O’Connell. Paddy loves two things: fresh pow, and his wife, Carly. On their one-year wedding anniversary, the cutest couple in all of the outdoors ventured to Portillo, Chile to contemplate their affection for skiing and...

Six Overalls for Every Adventure You Can Possibly Imagine
  Say it with me: pants are boring. Why wear two pieces when you can roll your whole outfit into one? I’ll admit I was once an overall skeptic—I don’t love the way workwear has become trendy lately. But what may present as an obnoxious lifestyle trend can be surprisingly practical (not to mention make life more fun). Ranging from impressively...
Why People in Sweden Do Nature Right
  Back in the 1980s, my left-leaning dad used to joke at the dinner table that if a certain right-leaning President were re-elected, we would be moving to Sweden. In his mind, the country of his forebears was an egalitarian society of hale and hearty outdoor people who lived among nature and cared deeply about the welfare of others. My dad...
The Best Quilt for Overlanding Doesn’t Sacrifice Comfort for Performance
  Most quilts designed for the outdoors are created to be used as either throw blankets, or seriously ultralight insulation for backpacking. The former prioritize low prices over performance, while the latter sacrifice versatility in order to save a few ounces. But the traditional sleeping bag also brings limitations, mostly to your ability to spread out, get comfortable, and share a...
Why You Should Install a Composting Toilet in Your Camper
  I want to paint a picture for you, and it’s not a pretty one. It’s 30 degrees, and lightly snowing with a crisp, 15-mile-per-hour wind blowing in my face. For the last hour, I’ve been kneeling next to my Airstream holding a hair dryer, trying fruitlessly to thaw the black tank dump valve, which had frozen overnight.   This was a...
The Best of Yellowstone
  It’s often said that the national parks are America’s best idea. No argument here. And it all started with designating Yellowstone National Park, a particular stroke of genius. This remarkable landscape of hot springs, geysers, and incredible wildlife became the country’s first national park in 1872, starting a revolution in protecting special landscapes in the United States and around the...
Did Surfline Revolutionize the Sport or Kill a Part of Its Renegade Soul?
  Greg Long had it on good authority that a wave bigger than any hed ridden at Mexico’s Islas Todos Santos could arrive between 10:20 and 10:40 A.M. on January 6, 2023. The 40-year-old had been chasing swells down to the islands in northern Baja since he was a teenager in the 1990s, planning his trips using the crude surf forecasting...
