Step 1
Release guy ropes. Release velcro that attaches the fly to the poles. Remove Portico
poles.
Remove fly from tent. Lay fly flat on ground and fold the fly in half, third or quarters.
(folding depends on the length of the pole carry bag.)
Step 2
Unzip doors and windows, collapse the tent by removing and disassembling the poles.
Place the poles in the pole carry bag and tie shut.
Step 3
Remove pegs. Do not remove pegs from the ground by pulling on peg loops.
This may cause the peg loops to tear out of the seam.
Step 4
Spread the tent out flat with all loose fabric within the edges of the tent base.
Try to flatten the tent as much as possible.
Step 5
Fold the tent in half, third or quarters. (folding depends on the length of the tent pole
sections.) Place the folded fly in tent as you make the last fold.
Step 6
Place the pole bag on back end of tent (trapped air is more easily forced out of the open
door when you are rolling up the tent.) The folded tent should be the width of the pole bag.
Step 7
Beginning at the back end, roll your tent tightly around the pole bag, forcing out excess air
as you roll. Keep tent edges straight and pole bag centred as you roll.
Step 8
When tent is rolled up, tie straps around it and place into tent carry bag with peg bag,
instruction sheet, and other miscellaneous parts. If tent won’t fit into bag, unroll and reroll
more tightly.

Important
Do not store your tent away wet, damp or dirty. If you have no choice but to return
home from your camping trip with a wet, damp or dirty tent, make sure you lay it out
to air in a cool, dry and shaded place and only pack it away when it is completely dry
and clean.
