Tents are essential parts of camping because they keep you safe from weather, animals, and insects. They help you sleep in please while camping and keep your hiking gear safe with you. They are like a home away from home when you are on a camp.
Tents made from cotton canvas are breathable, waterproof, environmentally friendly, and insulating. Most camping tents are made from plastics (nylon, polyester) which are cheap to manufacture but lack the durability and weather resistance of canvas.
Roof Top Tents can be installed on flat racks, cross bars or a canopy, what matter is the load rating or weight capacity of the type of system you choose.
Customizable Size and Configuration

The lack of outside support adds to the versatility of the tent. This allows it to be set up in almost any type of space. Uncluttered by visible rope and support poles, the clean lines of a structure tent are visually appealing and convenient.

Not all tents are waterproof. In fact, most tents are water resistant, which means that they just slow down the penetration of rainwater inside but do not prevent it from entering altogether. Such tents need additional coverage to become waterproof.
When camping in the rain, tents can flood, they often do so not from above but from below. One way to prevent that from happening is to place a heavy-duty tarp under your tent. It is of the utmost importance that no part of the tarp extends out from underneath your tent.
After your tent seams are completely secure and waterproof, they`ll remain that way for years. Usually, sealing your tent seams is a one-time, permanent fix. Unless you`re backpacking in harsh conditions for months on end, you`ll only have to reseal the seams once every 8-10 years.

Tent I bought a tent the name on the outside says South Mountain.Not sure how to put up. It has two long rods & two short ones it looks like there are two rain gaurds also. There are no instrutions that came with this tent. Are there any pics that that show how to put up. I think the tent is around five years old.
ANSWER : It has to be similar to this (see link below). Most tents assemble in similar ways. Insert rods through the sleeves. Hook one side of the rod to one corner, arch the rods and hook the other side of the rod to the opposite corner. Repeat for the other rod.

Instruction for setup of American Camper tent 8×11
ANSWER : Finally figured it out through trial and error. This right here is the only correct explanation given anywhere on the net.

First, make sure you have all of your poles. There will be 4 straight green ones, 4 straight blue, 4 straight burgundy with plastic feet, 4 curved yellow, 2 small orange arches, a straight pink and a straight white.

Before you start putting the poles together, stake the tent down at every loop point around the base of the tent. There should be 10 of them. Make sure they’re fairly tight and the floor of the tent is taught and flat but not so tight that you tear the tent at the seam. Stake 1 corner first. Then put the second stake through the second loop in order and using a firm pressure, pull away from the first stake, along the line of the tent base, make taught and push the second stake into the ground. Repeat until finished.

The first pole assembly uses in this order, going out from the yellow arch, which is in the center. From one side of that arch, add one green, then a curved yellow, then another green and a burgundy at the bottom. Do the same from the other side of the center arch piece.

This arch outlines the door and goes through the 3 loops on the front of the tent, around the door, so the poles hold the tent up. the loops at the bottom are not for the poles. Every loop around the bottom are where the stakes go to hold it down. For now point the feet towards the back of the tent wherever they will stand on their own. You can fine tune it and firm it up once you get the second arch in place.

All green ones should now be used up.

For the second arch, do the same thing but use the blue instead of the green. So from the one side of the yellow arch, 1 blue, 1 curved yellow, one blue and one burgundy. Same order from the other side of the arch.

Now all the poles should be used up except for the straight pink one and the straight white one. These two go together to make a straight pole that goes through the metal loops attached to the yellow arch pieces and locks the two arch assemblies apart at the top.

Now this takes some maneuvering and some word smithery to describe but what you want to do is make sure the feet of the front arch assembly, are pointed towards the back of the tent and stop at the side. The back arch feet will point towards the front of the tent. They both stop about 6 inches BEFORE the center tie down loop on the SIDES of the tent, on either side of the center loop. The front arch will actually lean forward, with the feet pointed behind it and wedged into the ground, right up against the tent at the bottom, move it around until you have a nice firm feel to it. Same with the back arch but this one will lean away from the back of the tent and the feet pointed towards the front. Once you get the back arch into place, it will really firm up and won’t budge.

Another way to describe it would be that the two arch assemblies feet will point towards each other at the side of the tent, about 6 inches before they reach the center loop on either side.

Hope this helped. =)
