When we are camping outdoors, tents are arguably our home. Setting up well a tent is helpful for the safety and comfort of our sleep. So how do we set up a tent? Here are some tips for setting up a hot tent.
1. Try to set up tents on a hard, flat ground; avoid setting up hot tents near damaged trees or branches that may be blown down by strong winds.
2. The tent should be selected in a place with good drainage such as sand, and grass; camp at least 300 meters away from lakes and streams.
4. The tent is best facing south or southeast so that you can see the early morning sun; if you are camping in a hot climate, the tent door should face the direction of the wind, which will be cooler.
5. The ground pegs cannot be nailed down vertically, otherwise the ground pegs will bounce back to the ground directly when the wind blows. The ground pegs should be at 45 degrees to the ground. Use a stone to drive the ground nails to the end. Do not hit the ground nails in sequence, but after each corner of the ground nails are hammered, the diagonal ground nails are hammered in. The position of the ground nails should be The direction of the force of the wind rope is the same, which will make the tent more stable; put some stones on the corners of the tent or the snow skirt to make the tent more stable.
6. Do not use too much force when pulling the wind ropes initially. After the tent wind ropes are all pulled up, adjust the tension of the wind ropes one by one and tighten them to prevent the wind ropes from loosening after the tent is set up.
7. The hanging point of the inner account should be fixed in the corresponding position to avoid displacement. Ensure that the inner account and the outer account maintain a corresponding spatial distance. The corners of the inner tent should be stretched as much as possible to ensure that the inner tent is fully supported.
8. After the tent is set up, adjust the fastening webbing at the corners of the tent, so that all corners of the tent can be stretched and propped up naturally, so as to avoid the overall skewing and twisting of the tent.
