Nice tent! When rolling up your doors to the fly you should roll it inwards not outwards. This helps to keep rain water out of the rolled up door.

the orange liitle tube is a repair tube , say your on the trail and your tent pole snaps slide that tube over the break and your good to go . easy fix while on the trail

@Garsono Thanks for the reply!

That's a repair tube. if you have a pole break or crack, slip the tube onto the pole over the crack and tape it down. It's not a permanent fix, but it will get you out of the woods.

Good video. Thanks. I am looking at getting either this tent or the REI Half Dome. They look like good sturdy tents and not too heavy. Anthony.

@marionette912 Extra orange tube is for pole repair if needed just slip it over damaged section of pole for an easy temporary fix. Hope this helps : )
I cant find this tent on reis website anymore. Did they stop selling it?

@latinkulta They may have taken it off the market. It has been over 2 years since I posted this video. Designs change.

After I set it up, there was a small 6 inch orange tube left over. What is this for? Also, do I need to water proof the seams?
Thanks so much for all of your help!

@marionette912 - yeah I had the same tube. Based on the directions (from my memory) it is just extra. And no you do not need to water proof the seams.

Thanks so much for posting this. After stuggling several times, I found your video and set it up in less than a minute!
A few tips for others:
1 - stake the tent first 2 - lay the poles on the tent, (you can kinda see how they go in his video) 3 - do the silver poles first, then orange. 4- do the two short orange poles, 5 do all the clips.
Very easy! And yes one person can do it. I'm a tiny 40 year old woman who never put up a tent before and I did it.
