5. What is Tent? A portable and foldable shelter made of cloth, supported by one or more poles and stretched tight by cords or loops attached to pegs driven into the ground. It is mostly used for outdoor activities.

6. What is a tent use for? Tents are usually used as shelter during camping, hiking, and other outdoor recreational activities.

Modern ridge tents are usually best suited for two people. So if you are looking for something bigger, bell tents are probably the nearest you will get to a large traditional ridge tent.

9. Pros Good at dealing with rain – no pooling on top Sturdy in bad weather (when put up well) Simple to set up Cons Not very liveable due to lack of head room Usually heavy Not that easy to put up well

They are made up of two flexible poles that cross at the top of the dome and bend to be anchored to the floor on each of the four dome corners. Sometimes the poles are on the outside of the rainfly, but usually the rainfly sits over the top of the poles with an inner tent clipped to the underside of the poles. Many dome tents will have a small porch area, and some designs have an extra pole to make the porch space bigger. Although available in many different sizes, dome tents are best suited to up to four people, as the bigger they are the more unstable they become. DOME

11. Together with tunnel tents, dome tents are one of the most common types of tents around. They are made up of two flexible poles that cross at the top of the dome and bend to be anchored to the floor on each of the four dome corners. Sometimes the poles are on the outside of the rainfly, but usually the rainfly sits over the top of the poles with an inner tent clipped to the underside of the poles.

12. Many dome tents will have a small porch area, and some designs have an extra pole to make the porch space bigger. Although available in many different sizes, dome tents are best suited to up to four people, as the bigger they are the more unstable they become.

13. Pros Inexpensive Easy to put up and take down Lightweight Reasonably small pack down size Good headroom Cons Not very stable in the wind or bad weather Very unstable in larger sizes Small porch/vestibule  

14. Tunnel tents These are great for larger groups and families as they provide lots of headroom and plenty of liveable space. They are made up of a series of flexible poles that loop from one side of the tent to the other to form a tunnel shape for the rainfly to attach to. They rely on guy lines to provide stability, and when put up well they can withstand bad weather reasonably well, especially the bigger models compared with dome tents.

15. Pros Easy to put up and take down Lots of liveable space Good headroom Great for larger groups Fairly stable in the wind – especially when pitched smartly depending on the wind direction Cons Heavy – only for car camping Don’t deal well with heavy rain – water can pool on top of the rainfly between the poles

The result is a geodesic tent, which is essentially a dome tent but with more poles. Generally speaking, the more poles that cross each other, the greater the stability of the tent. They are best suited to up to 4 people.

17. Pros Very stable in bad weather and high winds Durable and well made Good headroom Usually lightweight Cons Pricey Can be slightly tricky to put up Not good for large groups

18. Bivy tent For solo wild campers and hikers who want to carry as little weight as possible, bivy tents are ideal. They provide just enough protection from the elements to stay dry and are very low profile – great for stealth camping.

19. Tent capacity: 1 Most common shape: Tunnel, or ridge   Desirable features: Lightweight Easy to put up and take down Small when packed down Built-in bug net Good ventilation

24. Parts of the Tent and Tent Pitching 1.Unpack your tent supplies. Once you've found a good area to set up camp, it's time to unpack your things. It's a good idea to pack all of the parts out at once. Assembling your tent will be fastest if you don't have to unpack each item one at a time. Keep all parts nestled in one place so you can keep account of everything.

25. Because the list of supplies depends on the specific type of tent you're using, here are a few different types of tents you can consider: A-Frame tents are the most typical and common type of tent for personal use. They're the easiest to erect and usually come with extras like a rain-fly and weather tarp.

26. Tunnel tents are different from typical "A-Frame" tents because they are structured by two long poles that both run the width of the tent. This creates a wider interior with more headspace. However, they're not nearly as stable when it comes to wind.

27. Dome tents are generally the largest, and usually reserved for larger groups in camping. Although they're quite a bit bigger, they're generally very easy to pitch.

28. 2. Lay down an earth pad.  No matter how much you clear the area, there may still be twigs and other debris that could puncture your tent or make the surface otherwise uncomfortable. A ground cloth should be big enough to encompass the space of at least most of your tent. The added cushion of a ground cloth will lead to a more comfortable rest

29. 3. Insert your tent poles through the frame. Once you've gotten all your tent parts out, slide the support poles through the body of the tent. Lie the tent frame out. That way, you can make sure you're sliding the poles through the right slots. This is arguably the most time-consuming part of tent assemblage, but it's very straight forward. In the case of a "tunnel tent", make sure the poles are parallel from one another

30. 4. Raise the tent.  If the support poles have joints, make them rigid. The poles are going to have a pre-set frame to them for the main body of the tent. Help the tent up by lifting parts of it. The poles should hold the frame in place. If not, secure loose parts of the poles or extend them as needed

31. 5. Hammer in your tent pegs. Using a mallet or a nearby rock, take the spikes that come with your tent and hammer them into the ground. This will stabilize the tent and make sure it doesn't move around. If you don't have tent pegs for whatever reason, you can improve by using sturdy sticks and pushing them into the soil.

32. 6. Set up the rain-fly. It's important to keep in mind that tents on their own are usually not waterproof. This is where the rain-fly comes in. A rain-fly is an additional piece you set overtop the tent. There should be something along the line of latches on the roof of your tent to secure the rain-fly in place. Even if you're pretty sure there will be no rain, it doesn't hurt to install it nonetheless. It will ensure all of your tent equipment stays in one place, and prepare you for unforeseen rain showers

33. 7. Move your things into the tent. Once the tent is set up, you can equip the interior. Because there isn't usually much space in a tent, you should decide which things are alright to store outside, and which things should be kept inside. Sleeping bags are an obvious must in your tent. Crates and hard-cased storage can be left outside
