Clip the fly to the tent (see illustration below) but don’t tighten the buckles yet.

Stake out the vestibule and tighten the rainfly buckles.

Notes and Tips

❍ If you pitch the tent in a wind, anchor the tent before you put poles in. To prevent lift-off, use all stake

loops and both side guyouts. Equipment inside a tent won’t hold it down in winds of 25mph or more.

Many tents have been destroyed by unexpected winds rolling them away with a lot of gear inside!

❍ Fire near your tent is a no-no. Your tent can burn. Never cook in your tent or use candles for light inside.

❍ A good trick is to tie a small rock on to the stake

loop about a foot away from the tent. Then put

a big rock on top of the cord and pull it back

against the small rock (left). This method pulls

tents out taut and doesn’t lift the tent off the

ground as does tying directly to a large rock (right).

❍ Most people put the stake well into a tent’s stakeloop as they pull the tent out and push the stake into the

ground. This loses some of the tension you put on the tent. Instead, pull out the stakeloop with just the tip

of the stake in the loop. This keeps the tent fully taut as you push the stake in the ground.

❍ If you’ve ever wondered: “We put a man on the moon—so how come I can’t get a tent stake that’ll hold

up?” We have a stake for you: our Kelty Nobendium™ tent stakes. They are amazingly strong and

durable without weighing any more than a regular stake. We would have loved to have given you a

bunch of these but they cost about $1.50 each so we thought it should be a decision for you to make

(rather than forcing the tent price up). Call us and we'll put you in touch with your nearest dealer.

❍ To minimize UV damage from the sun, don’t keep tent set up for long periods of time or when not in use.

How do I impregnate a tent? Verified

Pitch the tent, clean the cloth and let it dry. Apply the impregnation agent on the cloth with a plant sprayer or other spray. It is also possible to use a paint roller or brush. The cloth needs to be fully saturated with the impregnation agent. Also treat the inside of the tent. Thoroughly clean any windows with a moist cloth. Do not let the impregnation agent dry on it. Let the tent cloth fully dry. Repeat the treatment if needed.

Can I repair a tear or hole in the canvas of my tent myself? Verified

There are special pieces of self-adhesive patches of cloth available for synthetic tent canvases. Stick one of these patches on both sides of the hole or tear. For cotton tent canvases or mixed material tent canvases it's best to use patches that can be ironed on. This will require an iron.

The impregnation agent leaves white stains or a white haze on the tent cloth, what can I do about this? Verified

If the agent leaves a white haze or white stains on the tent cloth, this means you have applied more impregnation agent on those areas. This is not harmful and the stains often disappear over time. It is not advisable to use less impregnation agent to prevent stains. The cloth needs to be fully saturated with the impregnation agent to give good results.
