Nice Canopy from Costco

I was at a shoot this weekend and a couple of shooters brought a really well put together Crown Shades brand canopy they bought from Costco.  It seems stronger and thicker than any I've bought before. They are straight legged 10 x 10 - although there's also 13 x 13.  They have wheels too.

The 10 x 10 is on sale through 7/10 for $99.99 with free shipping.

Also, our savior for the weekend, Tennessee Beast, brought fans.  One of them was a misting fan.  I see some cordless ones for well under $100 pretty much anywhere.  I don't have a link, but I want to put the idea out there as much as possible as we get into summer.  We earned our Caliente patches with a heat index averaging 110°.  TN Beast is my new hero.  :1luvu

Stay cool!

A consideration for folks north of 6' is the height of the canopy, Costco has another model from CORE that is 13' x 13'.  I purchased it on a season end sale from them two years ago, and confirm that it's tall enough for me to walk under without smacking into.

Shhhhh - Those of us vertically challenged need to get our revenge a little at a time.  ;D

Good to know.  How much longer is the canopy folded up?  I stick everything in the back of my car.  Being short helps there too since my seat is up further than you would have it.  The better 10 x 10's have about a 8-10ish" to spare before I can't close the back.  I can fit 4 canopies as a base layer to the car and hide a couple rifle cases in. between.

It folds up into a 10" x 10" x 47" wheeled storage bag.  I'm not sure if that would interfere with closure of your trunk.
