Leader Accessories is ozark trail canopy one of the highest-rated pop-up shelters on the market, but is it the right one for you? Ships in the manufacturer’s original packaging, which may reveal the contents.
Set-up is instant so you can have it up and running in no time at all. Trailspace’s community of gear reviewers has field-tested and rated the top tents and shelters. Took it to Lake Anna for camping at night, fishing all day for three days. The first night we had a bad storm (wind, rain, lightning) so bad we had to get in truck and wait it out.
From a negative perspective, the weight is indicative of a lack of high quality material and components used throughout the shelter. The included carrying bag does not have wheels to aid in transportation, but at only 29 lbs. We don’t find that to be a noteworthy drawback as the nylon handles and shoulder strap work just fine in carrying the tent.
With bonus stakes, guylines, and a wheeled carry bag, you’re certainly getting value for your money. With 100ft² of ground space, multiple people can stand or sit comfortably inside without feeling cramped. It’s also enough room to put a standard table, some picnic chairs, and a cooler or two. With these openings, it gives the wind somewhere to go.
I highly advise that a tarp be used under this (and any other) tent, as that’s where most water will get in… I have had a drop or two of water get through the floor in HEAVY downpours with blowing winds, but not in normal rain showers. Great tent for a beginner or someone who likes to travel light. In the low-cost range of outdoor shelters, the Ozark 10ft x 10ft Trail Canopy is definitely at the top in its class.
