Modular portable camping could change the way you camp

In the summer of 2009 Lawrence Drake's daughter asked him to go camping with her and her young family in Rocky Mountain National Park. In his search for a camper he could pull with his small SUV having only a 1,000 pound towing capacity, he came up short.

That led to the idea for a lightweight camper that could be quickly mounted on his small utility trailer. This was the beginnings of the development of the Tail Feather and the convenience and practicality of modular camper.

Light weight is not just a claim, its true

Four years of development have gone into taking every unnecessary pound out of the Tail Feather Campers. At under 900 lbs., including the utility trailer, it can be pulled by just about any vehicle that has a tow rating. And, its aerodynamic too.

Wood, particle board, steel, vinyl, fiberglass and other typical camper building materials are heavy. The Tail Feather Camper is made of strong, but lightweight materials. The additional cost of lightweight components more than pays for itself in fuel, maintenance and travel cost savings.

Same durable construction as white water kayaks

Tail Feather Campers are roto-molded from tough and rugged polyethelyne just like white water kayaks. They are injected with highly insulative PE foam for strength, durability and comfort, and are UV protected to prevent deterioration in the elements.

Modify to fit your needs

Tail Feather Campers are designed to fit your needs when you need it. The interior furnishings can be quickly folded away to accomodate your ATV, bike, motorcycle or small boat. Unload and set up for comfortable camping in minutes.

Diassemble the whole Tail Feather Camper in minutes and use your utility trailer for hauling. Switch the windows and cabinets around to fit your taste.

Simplicity through and through

From a single screw driver required for assembly, lift off doors, and foldable furniture, everything in a Tail Feather Camper is designed to be simple - to assemble, to use, and to store.

A cozy sanctuary from the elements

Much bigger inside than it looks, you can sit four comfortably at the dinette. The six foot two inch ceiling with its gentle curve gives plenty of headroom for most people. The dinette converts easily to a 6' long full size bed or add the jump seats for a king size bed.
