Handy gear loft adds storage space to tent
sponsored links
A handy, roomy gear loft may be just the accessory you need to add needed storage space to your tent on your next camping outing.
If you've ever wished you had more closet space at home, you will understand the need for organization and storage space in your tent, no matter how roomy that tent may be. A gear loft is usually a square, or rectangular, or triangular chunk of netting or cloth that hooks with clips and/or cords to the loops near the ceiling of most tents. Check some commercial camping gear sites and you can often find gear lofts constructed specifically to fit some of the more popular brands and sizes of tents. Or you can, without a great deal of effort, put one together on your own.
Make sure you secure the gear loft carefully. You want to create a shelf or cargo net below the ceiling of the tent. It should hand low enough to store things in within easy reach -- but high enough to stay out of the way as you move around and move in and out of your tent. Simply adjust the tension on most gear loft clips to raise or lower the netting.
