Australians invented聽heavy duty, one-person canvas swag tents ($300) to keep poisonous聽insects and invasive聽animals out while camping down under. Here in the States, where we don't have as many threats, they still make great, bombproof car-camping shelters. On cold nights the thick, waterproof material traps heat, but the canvas also rolls down to reveal lots of mesh for when things warm up. Inside, a built-in two-inch pad offers comfort from the hard ground.聽
