I store kayak paddles (4, in two pieces each), an axe, a wiffle ball bat (big red plastic), and some screens up there. It's good storage space! I often find myself leaving these thigns up there all winter though, and at some random point in December every year people ask me why I have so many kayaking paddles ready for use. -Craig On Tue, Jul 5, 2011 at 9:10 AM, george jannini <georgejoann@gmail.com>wrote: > From experience, here's what I can fit behind the folded front bunk > section up in the loft. > > First off, I've put a layer of 1/2" memory foam cut into two > sections underneath the mattress pads, and this has made a great > improvement in comfort. > > Behind the folded front section, I store 2 zipped together fleece > sleeping bags, one extra fleece blanket and my pillow.
