Bear Necessities–a rare post from The Todd!

Posted by Erin (and sometimes The Todd) on Oct 7, 2009 in The Todd's View on Things

So, my friend Robin says, “come up to Wyoming and join us for the Elk Bow Hunt!”  (Editor’s note: because I can cook.)  That part of Wyoming is Bear Country…and I recently sold my SWEET 1968 jet trailer.  My little truck doesn’t have a camper shell, and I really don’t want to sleep on the ground.  So…here is my challenge.

After picking up 3 sheets of 3/8 plywood (you’ll want the thin stuff for weight, so that one person can set it up and take it apart) some furring strips, and glue screws, I came up with the modular camper shell.  Because of it’s light-weight construction and modular design, I chose not to drive with it already assembled.  Instead, I packed the back, and then put the parts flat over the rest of the best and strapped it down.  In addition, I put a tarp over the entire thing for extra water-proofing.

Now, I KNOW it looks like a doghouse, but it worked great!  Plus, it breaks down neatly and stores against the wall in the garage.  A used camp shell would cost around $250.00–that is, if you can find one, and if you have the room to store it.

Back to my “dog house.”  I had some hinges in my treasure chest of junk, along with some exterior paint, and ta-da!  I’m bear-resistant.  NOT bear proof.  My wife Erin cynically calls it “the crunchy outer coating before the bear gets to the chewy center.”  (I’m the “chewy center.”)  I guess the life insurance is paid up again.

Anyway, for about $60.00, I put it together in a weekend, and it worked perfectly.  Give it a try…and remember, bear-RESISTANT.

Todd
