Coming from Australia the capital for off road camper trailers I still havn't found a comparable dedicated off road trailer with independent coil suspension and the rugedness of oz designs here in Canada but have seen 1 or 2 that would do just fine. I will try to find a couple of brochures I have collected.

They are cool. Another style here

Then, depending on your requirements and tastes there are the "teardrop" style of trailer. Lots of do-it-yourself info on the Net for these as well.

Another option is a rooftop tent. We did some camping last summer with our son (at the time he was 10 months). Lots of room, quick and easy to set up,and you can use it on any vehicle. Available through Willie at Offroad Academy here in Vancouver.

This one was meant to go behind a rover:

Off road trailers never caught on here because of the problems with pulling trailers on logging roads, there is rarely room to turn around with a trailer and you can’t back up if you meet a logging truck coming down and sometimes you really want to back up in a hurry!
