Gear storage and Hunting Trailers
« on: December 13, 2020, 01:43:20 PM »
Looking to get some ideas on hunting gear trailers whether they are enclosed or not, for hauling camp and gear to and from your spots. Post some pics of your setups that help you avoid playing Tetris with your truck beds.

Well I haul three wall tents , 20x 10 cook shack, all the frames, cots, tables, and four wood stoves.

I use a open box 10 x 5 trailer with drop gate. 24 inch sides. I have thought of a closed box trailer but for me the trailer has to serve many roles. Hauling camp couple times a year is just one.
After camp is up it hauls water,straw,firewood, and game. At home it is always on the road for some project.

Get a trailer with the lights up or very protected. Drop gate is golden.

Here mine.

Most of my gear has been put in totes on wheels. Grab the tote up the ramp and go.
A tote for dry food,kitchen needs, cook shack and each tent has its own tote.

The trailer this year also served as a shower. Two tent poles over the box and a tarp. Made a nice shower area.

Open box you can do a lot more with it.

My thoughts as well, hard to rationalize an enclosed trailer for the few trips a year, would love to have it double as a landscape and yard work trailer. I am sure I can find a waterproof cover with bungees or something also if necessary. Nice setup.
