Tent Tips

  • At the beginning of each season, air out your tent and seal every seam. This will keep dew and rain on the outside all season long.
     
  • Be sure to take a tent stake mallet and a tent stake puller. These inexpensive products save a lot of heartache and allow you to easily set up and break camp in any soil condition.
     
  • Stake your camping tent with a door away from the direction of the wind.
     
  • If you’ll be camping in a sandy area, you'll need extra-long specialty stakes.
     
  • Use a ground cover under a tent or sleeping bag.
     
  • Partially unzip the upper window in your tent to remove unwanted moisture and condensation from respiring sleepers. On muggy nights, also zip open a lower window to draw cooler air and create a chimney effect.
     
  • Zip open your sleeping bag for a few minutes every morning to remove moisture, then shake the bag to restore insulation loft. You’ll sleep warmer and extend the life of your sleeping bag.
     
  • Never use a stove or fuel lantern in your tent. Pack a battery-operated lantern or flashlight for use inside your tent.
     
  • Don't leave nylon tents out in the sun for long periods of time. UV exposure will shorten tent life.
     
  • Make sure your tent is dry before you store it.
