The Alaskan Camper was - and is - a simple yet dramatic breakaway from the bulky profile of the average pickup truck camper. Since the original Alaskan, designed in 1953 for the purpose of conquering the Alcan Highway, outdoorsmen have searched for a camper that would give them protection from the rain and cold, travel rough terrain, be lightweight and present the least wind resistance on the road.
We decided to build what they wanted! The first unit was constructed so that the top, by an ingenious hydraulic system, could be raised and lowered. This allowed for full standing room in the interior when in camp, but when on the road, the unit was snugged down with only a few inches of camper roof extending above the truck cab. The result was reduced wind resistance and increased gas mileage! "TOP UP, TOP DOWN" not only is this a tremendous advantage for the Alaskan Pickup Truck Camper, but it typifies our whole design and quality philosphy, "from the top to the bottom we will build the best." Today the Alaskan Camper is available as a custom camper as well as the standard Ten (10') Foot Alaskan or the Standard Eight (8') Foot Alaskan
