Has anyone tried a Kelty Backroads Shelter

I've been looking for a lightweight but functional shelter to use attached to the rear of our T@G for added galley shelter. Especially one that would not interfere with opening and closing the hatch when it is set up. Just curious if anyone has any experience with this product or something similar.

It looks like a Hasika. See threads here:

We use a Backroads shelter with our T@G and we're very pleased with it. We most often use it on the side of the camper rather than the rear but it works well there, too. We secure it with heavy-duty suction cups placed on the top of the camper.

It's a very well made product. It's light, easy to put up, and stows easily. (We still need to trim the excess off the straps that come with it.)

Hey, Thanks GulfCoast; love your canoe too!

P.S. I had already took a chance and ordered a Backroads this morning.

Hey GulfCoast;

Just tried out the Kelty Backroads on our 2017 T@G XL and it fit even better than I had hoped it would. We have a Yakima awning on the starboard side but it fit under that just fine and strapped neatly to the back crossbar bases. The galley hatch opens fully with no problem. The fist time setup was not that hard either.

Take a look at Big Agnus Three Forks Shelter. We have used one for years, easy stow, light weight eight pounds +/- Side panels available for privacy. Works for us
