Put a Shademaker awning on the backside. It's a 7 ft, teal green.

Ever been to Camp Shadeless?

I had to rig up a silvery tarp to do the same thing last year for a three-week camping session with direct afternoon sun, sitting on blacktop, in 103 degree weather. You should know that pop-ups don't protect much from heat, so anything you can do to bring down the temperatures helps.

That's much nicer than my jury-rigged solution.


This space left intentionally.

2006 Fleetwood Sequoia and mods...one of the tallest highwall pop-ups on the planet after flipping the axle.

I visit camp shadeless once a year at the races. Just kept all my curtians closed or if it was breezy, open the whole thing up.

Curious about camp shadeless this year. After I moving up to a TT I no longer have that option.

I think that is an awesome idea!! Sometimes the "view" from the back is better then the "front" of the camper, it would be nice to sit in the shade!!!

I was concerned about the weight, but turns out it only weighs 17lbs.....wish I would have spend a few more bucks and got at least a 9footer.
