Best Sleeping Gear: 2017 Digital Trends Outdoor Awards
Yakima’s entry into the rooftop tent industry shows that this latest camping trend is hardly a fad. With the SkyRise rooftop tent series, the rack maker leaned on all of its own materials, designing and manufacturing a high-quality rooftop abode that we found incredibly easy to pitch. An included foam mattress reminded us of our bed at home, making the SkyRise a glamping experience that goes wherever your car does. At $1,350, though, it’s a large investment for car campers and it’s worth pointing out that it does require mostly even ground to set up properly. These crazy contraptions are all the rage these days, and Yakima’s SkyRise is one of the best rooftop tents you’ll find.
