How to fold up a 2 dome tent?

Answer 1

3 stages to folding up a tent...

1) wake and dress provocatively.
2) stand around looking pathetic until a man appears
3) bat eyelids at man & say "I don't suppose you could pack our tent away, it's very confusing for little old me..."

et VOILA!!!!

Answer 2

Make sure it is absolutely dry.

Packing depends on the type of tent.

My 3-man has an inner tent which is supported by the carbon-fibre poles with an outer fly sheet.

The inner has a sewn in ground sheet.

With the poles removed from the inner tent, I fold the in up to make a square, ground sheet down.

I then fold the fly sheet up evenly, laying it on the inner, ensuring that it stays within the foot print.

Fold over once, then twice until I have the tents folded the same length as the bag it goes into.

The poles and pegs are placed in the bags and put on the folded tent.

I then roll the who thing together, keeping it tight and getting all of the air out.

I slip one end of the roll in the bag then the other.

The hardest part is zipping the bag up. If you've kept the roll tight, the the zip will do up fine.

Enjoy camping.

Answer 3

fold the top sheet like a blanket corner to corner the inner tent with the waterproof part flatten out fold once and put the top sheet on it then fold or roll up.
if you have a bag you are wanting it to be same height as bag then roll up to fit in bag.

Answer 4

Ha ha! I have no idea - we're going camping this weekend and it will be interesting to see if our tent is still usable after the last time ;-)

Edit: I'm gonna try Jedi's suggestion next time - sounds like a good plan!!

Answer 5

My tent has intructions on the label on the inside of the bag- check yours. Fraid I can't help you though, mine's a v basic tiny tent!

Answer 6

no instructions?

fold it over itself and then place the outer on the inner.

put the poles and pegs on top of that and roll it up.
