Rainforest settings for TC photos?

[RobertRyan]

I have noticed the bulk of the Photos submitted for trip reports are primarily in fairly dry areas. That is a generalisation , but TC’s in Alaska are rare or a rainforest are non existent.
This shot of a Pop Up manufacturers TC in an Australian Forest is fairly common here. Pickup is a VW Amarok

It rains a bit on the West Side in Oregon and Washington. I think what you are noticing is that there are more people doing trip reports from dry areas because there are more people on here from those areas.

Also, most of us would rather camp in dry areas most of the time. That's just a short drive over the Cascades.

Your TC is an interesting concept in truck campers. I also have a popup type TC manufactured by Northstar MFG The upper portion of my camper is vinyl with zippered windows and a crank is used to deploy the top.
Good to hear from you.

Lots of Americans living near the coast of Northern California, Oregon and Washington would disagree with your weather generalizations about the “wet” part.

And the Three Saints Bay colony was founded on Kodiak Island in 1784 while Los Angeles was a city in 1781.

It does not hold for Australia as the topograhy varies considerably

Interesting observation, Robert! I think that the moist part of the USA is mostly east of the Mississippi, where there is less federal open land than in the drier Far West. So if you like to camp way out in the middle of nowhere (which makes for some good photos!), you are more likely to be in dry territory. The wetter portion of the US was settled much earlier than the West, so it is more densely populated, in general.
