I went into my hot, stuffy south Florida attic to retrieve my 40 year old tent, where it has remained inside the stuff sack for probably 30 years. My kid is heading to the Lake Tahoe area this summer for about a month and needs a tent.
Well, after about a 90 minute struggle I figured I'd better find a source of information on how to assemble this tent, because I sure as heck haven't been able to. Can't get the poles set up. I'm sure there's a technique for inserting the poles easily and quickly and snapping them into shape. Be damned if I know. Any suggestions?
