Suggestion for annex rooms

[dcg141]

A side entrance with a sewn in awning. Some may have then, mine does not. The entrance coming in right where the ladder is in the way was not a great idea. Also the sloped walls could use a awning when its raining.

What tent do you have?

Grodigear...but most of the annex rooms look like the same design.

My Smittybilt is like that, makes the annex kinda useless unless you really really need it for some reason.

There all more or less the same . The ladder does not get in the way on my Globetrotter or my Autana . Plenty of room for a couple of puppy crates or a cot or two. More room in the Autana then the globetrotter. But it has come in handy for a couple things ...first it's nice to use as a changing room, get your clothes and shoes on before you head out. And for when it rains it's nice to sit and watch where it's dry. The globetrotter I put a roll out rubberized mat down because in there infinite wisdom they put a worthless mesh mat to lay down in it . I prefer the tepui for a number of reasons !!!

I love the annex room for the same reasons. Having a place to stow gear and dress out of the weather really makes them worth taking. I was just thinking that a side entrance with a sewn in awing would make them even better. My last 2 outing have been during downpours so I was able to really test their function during bad weather.
