Choice of site
Find a site that is even and without any sharp objects. Remove those things that
can damage your tent.
Find a spot that is protected from the wind. Avoid pitching your tent close to any
bodies of water to minimize condensation. Avoid also hollows where rain water can
gather.
Preparations for pitching
your tent
It is good to start by securing
the tent to the ground with
ground pegs in the corners.
Take out the poles and
assemble the the sections.
Make sure that all sections are
properly together.
You can for example tie a guy line to a pack or anything else to prevent your tent
from getting blown away in strong wind.
