Looks cool

I think it might be a bit OTT for the one night stops, but if you were staying at one place for more than one night, it look like a good bit of kit!


I know f-all about tents, so I would be wanting to know how easy it is to put up and take down.

I use my Carping Bivvy (it`s small) does for me for a single night

They are good tents.

Always pitch the back end into the wind.
Always make sure the pole sections are fully connected before bending them in to place.
Always use the guy lines, regardless of whether its windy or not. Pull them so they pull against the one on the opposite side, at a right angle to the tent (not into the wind).

If you want to pack the tent smaller or between two of you, pack the poles separately and then stuff (don't roll) the inner tent and flysheet into compression sacks (like the ones you get for sleeping bags).

Enjoy it
