Lay The Base
- Gather your tent, poles, rainfly and footprint or tarp.
- Choose a spot to set up your tent — as clear, level and flat as possible.
- Your campground may come with a designated tent pad.
- Remove any sticks, pine cones, stones or debris on the ground where you will set up your tent.
- Decide which way you want to orient your tent.
- Take advantage of natural windbreaks and shade, for a peaceful night and to avoid waking to the hot sun beating down on your tent. Consider wind direction, too, to ensure it doesn’t blow right into the door.
- Lay down the footprint or tarp.
- It may be wider or longer than your tent, but excess material can be folded under after setup.
