Our team uses all the gear we sell and tests it in the real world, with fun adventures and awesome family.

Several years ago we got our red Canyon (aka @wanderingmigu), and with it began exploring Ontario with a vehicle.

Going beyond the concrete jungle was as easy as turning the wheel onto a trail. In late April 2016, we thought we would go for our first trail run of the year, after the snow had melted. The reality was northern Ontario was still pretty much covered by a few layers of snow.

Setting our tent on the wet snow was not exciting and so the search for the best roof top tent began.

After months of research we settled on our Tepui Kukenam Ruggedized. It was shipped from California to BC and then to us. Quite a complex chain of events to order a product. We thought to ourselves, why does the best roof top tent company in North America not have any representation in Ontario?

The decision was simple, if we wanted Ontario’s overland and off-roading community to grow we needed to make high quality products, such as Tepui tents, available to all. This is how Red Bear Outdoors was born, a desire for comfort in all terrains.

We continue to try and get out whenever we can, to the great outdoors, and encourage our fellow explorers to follow us along on our Instagram page and come out and join us!
