Rodney runs his OP4 behind a Jeep Gladiator, and this trip took both deep into the Colorado mountains: Mineral Basin, an alpine lake and the trails around Buena Vista.

"With the OP4 I've been able to go off-grid deep into the Colorado mountains but still be comfortable."

Between long days in the high country: quiet camps, mountain views and the slide-out kitchen doing dinner duty with sausage and peppers.
