RUGGED SHELTERS FOR GUIDE & OUTFITTER CAMPS

Hiking guides, fishermen, camp leaders, and nature guides of all sorts have one thing in common: they know the outdoors.

If you fall into one of those categories, you’ve probably been through your fair share of rough weather, and you know what gear works and what gear doesn’t.

Visitors and guests trust you to navigate them to remote places deep in the forest, to a secluded bay, or high into the mountains. They trust you to help them experience the best nature has to offer while staying safe and protected. When you’re responsible for other people’s safety, you need assurance that your guide and outfitter camps can withstand the worst conditions possible.

That’s why guides choose WeatherPort for their outfitter camp, lodging, or wilderness resort needs.

When you invest in engineered fabric structures from WeatherPort you’re choosing state-of-the-art camp facilities, perfected over 50 years and providing your guests with the ultimate outdoor experience available!

Since opening our doors in 1968, we have shipped our fabric structures to more than 85 countries around the world.

The durability, reliability, reusability, portability, engineering, and attention to detail put into every WeatherPort structure are unrivaled. All our building systems are customized to your specification and individually manufactured in the USA, by hardworking Americans.

GUIDE & OUTFITTER CAMPS DESIGNED FOR DURABILITY AND SAFETY

With WeatherPort products, you can offer:

-A small number of guests have an intimate encounter with wildlife.

-Larger groups looking to relax and enjoy the serenity of the wilderness.

-The best hunting adventure.

-A fishing camp during the spring and summer months.

Our fabric building systems are easy to install, will withstand the test of time, and offer guests an amazing outdoor and weatherproof experience.

We understand guides and outfitters are concerned with the volume, weight, and setup of all the gear and equipment needed to provide guests with the award-winning experience that will have them talking for years to come.

This is especially true for pack-in camps, drop camps, remote camps, high country camps, or mountain adventure base camps – areas that are roadless or hard to access. By design, WeatherPort camp facilities are engineered for portability.

We offer to carry bag systems for transportation by hand, horse, ATV, or helicopter. We also produce our own roto-mold containers in an assortment of sizes that are perfect for the transportation and storage of our camp structures.

Our engineered fabric structures employ a high-strength frame system available in galvanized steel or lightweight aluminum. The architectural membranes of our structures are produced with a proprietary blend of materials and impregnated with UV stabilizer, allowing our tensioned fabric structures to be set up and used in areas with extreme solar loads either seasonally or for year-round use.

Our tensioned membrane structures create a weatherproof and comfortable interior, so guests will not have to worry about heavy rains, snow, or strong winds.

From a maintenance standpoint, engineered structures are virtually maintenance-free. The fabrics will not rot because they are treated with a mold and mildew inhibitor, they will not tear, and they exceed the California Code of Regulations (CCR) for membrane structures in terms of fire safety.

Guides and outfitters will appreciate the thought that goes into our camp facilities when determining the best place to set up camp.

We specifically engineer all the structures with the minimal tool and minimal foundation requirements. This means less time preparing the ground or campsite to begin setting up your WeatherPort structures.

Avoid cold fingers fumbling with small nuts and bolts, being exposed to the harsh temperatures of late winter or early spring.

Our engineered fabric structures can be set up and securely anchored into virtually any level surface.

We offer an assortment of flooring systems designed to provide comfort and keep the critters and bugs out of your guests’ cabins.

DESIGN THE ULTIMATE FABRIC STRUCTURES FOR YOUR GUIDE & OUTFITTER CAMP

Nearly every feature of a WeatherPort structure is customizable. Unlike big box retailers that sell “set” camping tents, each WeatherPort is completely customized to your exact camp structure need. We offer a large selection of building models configurable to different widths, heights, and length. Once a building model and size has been determined, a friendly WeatherPort building specialist will work with you to select window, vents, door treatments and placing. We also offer complete systems for lighting and electrical, insulation, HVAC, flooring, as well as power generation and distribution.

In addition to designing the perfect camp system, you can also customize the colors of your WeatherPort structure. So, whether you want to create shelters that blend in nicely with the natural surroundings, stand-out, or promote your guide and outfitting business with large logos, we have a large selection of fabric colors and in-house printing capabilities to create one-of-a-kind structures.

The following WeatherPort models are our most popular with guides and outfitters for camp structures.
