Why this product

Why the OVS Everest 2 Cantilever?

The Everest 2's cantilever design extends the tent beyond the vehicle footprint, which can be useful for accessing the ladder from the side. At 250 lbs it is one of the heavier 2-person tents available, a direct consequence of the cantilever mechanism. Carefully verify your vehicle and rack can support this weight. If the cantilever overhang feature matters for your setup, this is a unique option, but the weight penalty is significant.
