Thx you man you respond to my question about to replace the hiking poles by tree branch 👍

[@ShavanoOutdoors]

@@silverback4434 Glad that was helpful! Thanks for watching!

When one puts up that tent using your technique - one winds up very healthy from the sprinting that will be done, chasing the tent flying with the wind. ;)

Haha, I actually just set it up today in the wind and it wasn’t too bad. Thanks for watching!

Peg out the two diagonal corners 1st, & pull them taught, then peg 3 & 4 & they will automatically find a perfect 90 deg oblong pitch, every time......

[@ShavanoOutdoors]

I’ll try that next time. I Thanks for the tip and for watching!

[@marypruett2377]

Great information. Certainly helps when choosing a tent ⛺️ to purchase.😅

[@ShavanoOutdoors]

Thanks for watching!

[@deannamills9022]

Like all the details you give, and the pros and cons: also, would like to know why you chose the shorter stakes over the longer stakes.?

[@ShavanoOutdoors]

Thanks! I ended up going with the smaller stakes because the ground was so hard and dry I couldn’t get the large ones in. Good question! Thanks for watching!
