    Why Choose the Sherpa Tent Cradle?

It doesn't stop there: if an item is roughly cylindrical, the cradle can hold it for quick and easy rooftop storage. The mounts sit as close to the rack as possible, keeping gear secure and low-profile. Browse the full Sherpa collection or explore more Sherpa accessories.
