Gotta get high! 8000' or more does it.....
It's all relative...
3.5 to 5.5 degrees Fahrenheit cooler for every 1000' you go up.
But it's Mother Nature, so don't put a ton of faith in that equation.

Yea I have been looking at the extreme weather covers for the RTT.......
Do the extreme weather covers help with blocking light (Night shift cop) and heat? I was looking at them as well, but couldn't find too much information on them.

we are 98% dispersed campers\offgrid in the national forest. Our 2% is with our son & his family in public camp grounds. Either way summer time camping in the south can be hot with high humidity. We use a 12v. fan by Endless Breeze, draws little power & works well whether sitting out side or having strapped to the middle pole inside our RTT. I find with public camp grounds the asphalt really up's the heat.

I’ll vote for the fantastic fan as well, I’ve had it since 2017 and it’s done great. I power it with my goal zero yeti 400 along with my lights for camp and charging cell and it lasts all weekend no problem.

I did break one part of the fan blade assembly due to extreme terrain(it was my fault, not the product) and I was able to disassemble and use 2 part epoxy to glue it back together, works like a charm still.
