this lightweight pop-up tent creates a tiny sleek home on wheels

MT HOOD rooftop vehicle tent for outdoor camping

 

Weighted less than 75 kilos, MT HOOD is an aluminum pop-up tent that can easily be set up on the spine of a car.  Developed by CVT, a home-grown family business, the structure combines the advantages of a lightweight package with the durability of a hard shell tent. This improves the performance of the vehicle while sporting a sleek home on wheels.

 

The tent unfolds quickly and can be easily mounted on the rooftop of the vehicle or on the back of a pickup truck. MT HOOD can accommodate a sleeping place for two that can also serve as a comfortable sitting area. Thanks to the openings all around, the users can enjoy the views without feeling claustrophobic. all images by Cascadia Vehicle Tents

MT HOOD comes in a low-profile clamshell for those who enjoy off-grid adventures. The tent can be fixed very fast thanks to the included crossbars. The equipment is adjustable in height to meet the requirements of each vehicle. Built-in ‘T’ channels around the entire perimeter offer easy attachment for add-ons and accessories, such as awnings, shovels, axes, lights, and even showers. 

 

Although the space is limited to a few sqm, the interior is spotted with multiple side pockets and an overhead net for extra storage. The tent features mesh insect screens and a fabric-lined ceiling. Through the included ladder, the camper can easily climb up on the tiny house.
