Abstract

A pair of rectangular parallelepiped boxes are affixed to the oversurface of a base member which is mounted on wheels. Each of the boxes is positioned at a corresponding one of a first pair of sides and extends between a second pair of sides of the base member. Each of the boxes has a top and an open end at one of the second pair of sides. The open ends are selectively coverable by doors. A bed support member covers the camper by resting on top of the boxes and extending therebetween when the camper is in transit and resting on the tops at the other of the second pair of sides when the camper is assembled. A plurality of support devices are provided on the bed support member and on the top of the boxes for supporting tubular brace members for maintaining the bed support member level above the ground and for supporting arcuate tent support members for maintaining a tent above the base member and the bed support member. A plurality of legs are foldably mounted on the undersurface of the base member. A cooking unit, a food chest, a cooling chest and a table top are removably stored in the boxes.
