If offroad campers near Portland, OR is what you are after, Cascadia Overland Co. sells three campers designed in Monroe, WA for gravel, washboard and forest roads. Our shop is in Monroe, WA, roughly 200 miles from Portland.

Where Portland offroad trips go

Popular offroad and dispersed-camping destinations from Portland include:

• Mount Hood National Forest
• The Columbia River Gorge
• The Tillamook State Forest and the coast

Portland campers tend to split their time between Mount Hood, the Gorge and the coast, which means a lot of wet forest road and a lot of freeway. A camper that is easy to put up and take down helps when the trip plan changes with the forecast.

What the roads ask of a camper

Wet forest roads are soft, rutted and brushy, and they ask for a camper that is light and no wider than it needs to be. Plan on mud and overhanging branches.

Which Cascadia camper fits

• Summit: The wide-body pop-up. It clamps on the same way, weighs about 480 to 570 lb and sleeps three or four, with standing height of roughly 6 ft 7 in or more under the soft-wall tent. Extra headroom is what you notice on a rainy evening, when you want to cook and change clothes standing up.
• Frontier: The wedge pop-up. It clamps on with no drilling, weighs about 300 to 350 lb, sleeps one or two adults, and closes down to 9 inches tall, so it barely changes how the truck drives or parks.
• Apex: The four-season slide-in pop-up truck camper. It is fully welded aluminum with no wood and 1-inch XPS insulation, built to your bed length from 5 ft to 8 ft, with base weights from 1,029 to 1,316 lb.

Two ways to get a camper to Portland

Our shop is in Monroe, WA, roughly 200 miles from Portland (around three and a half hours without traffic). That is a manageable trip for an install day, and many people pair it with a weekend. The other option is to skip the drive: Frontier and Summit ship disassembled with free shipping to the contiguous US, and the assembly instructions walk you through putting one together and clamping it on at home. The Apex can be drop-shipped from the factory without its battery and needs a forklift to unload, so we recommend having it installed in Monroe. Service and warranty work are done at the Monroe shop only, so call (425) 908-0259 before you make the trip.
