SELECTING A SITE

Choose a site that is level, clear of sharp stones and other
debris, is sheltered from the wind, and will drain when it
rains. You may wish to face your tent south or east to catch
the morning sun. Do not pitch your tent under trees, in
water drainages, or on ridge tops.

Unfold the tent body and lay it flat on the ground with the
door unzipped. Unfold the shock-corded tent poles so they
spring together gently. Make sure that each insert from
each pole section is fully engaged into the next pole sec­tion, otherwise you will damage the tubing (
