Popup truck camper with soft sides
Can pop up truck campers with soft sides be safely used in Alaska and other wild country? Thinking about bears, big cats, raccoons, etc. Any experienced input appreciated.

Only anemules in AK that aren’t down here that would be of concern are brown bear and grizz and of course there’s some grizz out west here.
No differnet than camping in the back country in the L48. Heck, a bear could rip through your camper in Alabama or Florida.
I disagree. Lots of difference between bears in AK and bears in the Lower 48. Most bear encounters in the Lower 48 are due to the bears being habituated to humans and their food. Not so in AK. I am always more concerned with bears in the Lower 48.
