Well done. I’m glad you mentioned the ground cloth (footprint), and cautioned about being to forceful sliding in the tent poles. Great video, and very informative. Thanks.
thanks for putting info out there for those that need it.
with all do respect i think its a half dome cause the quarter dome is mostly mesh and the poles just clip in the top no sleaves.
You didn’t explain about the out the flysheet and guy ropes. Their crucial components of any standard dome tent.
I usually set up the poles then stake out later to maintain tension. Although I’m not using a sleeved tent pole system.
yup, I think so
the polls are “basically” fiberglass, not metal !!??!
Can I come along with you on a camping mission? I’d like you to show me close up where to slide my pole in. And I bet our tent would never get cold. We can stick it up together and I promise not to rip your fabric
you’re a moron
why use a tent that you have to pack poles for? tipis are simple and you can cut a pole at your site and then leave it. wyominglostandfound
