    • Stakes sold separately.
    • Optional tent poles sold separately.
    • Optional orange zipper pulls sold separately.
     Instructions:
    • Stake out the front tip and back 2 corners of the tent keeping the floor slightly taut.  Make sure the sides are squared off and parallel.
    • Unzip the mesh door and sit inside on the floor of the tent with the ‘ceiling’ of the tent on top of your head.  
    • Extend both trekking poles to 125 cm and slide the handles inside the tent next of you.
    • Insert the carbide tip of one trekking pole into the opening of the ridge pole. (Handle end will be towards the floor)
    • Tuck the handle of the trekking pole into the side of the tent wall, on the floor.  Then raise the ridge pole to the ceiling, raising the tent as it goes.  
    • Slip the carbide tip of the second trekking pole into the other end of the ridge pole, and slide the handle into its spot on the side wall, along the floor. At this point, the tent should be loosely erected.  Take care that the trekking poles do not slip out of the ridge pole as they can cause damage to the tent.  
    • If you cannot extend the trekking poles enough to remove the slack in the side walls, step outside the tent, loosen the tension on the 3 Line Locks, then try to raise the trekking poles a little higher and get a tighter pitch to the tent. 
    • After the trekking poles and ridge pole are secured in place, step out the tent and adjust the Line Locks at the 3 corners so that the corners are standing upright and there is no slack in the walls of the tent. Stake out the mid point tie outs along the head and foot ends of the tent. 
    • Now stake out the fly using the tie out cords provided.  The fly will not come all the way down to the ground.  It should be a few inches off the ground to allow airflow under the fly.
    • For the AWNING, place the tip of the awning pole in the grommet at the tip of the awning, and adjust the placement/angle of the pole so the awning is taut.  Stake out the awning with the tie out cord located at the tip bringing the cord nearly straight down to the ground.
    • The ridge vent have a short plastic ‘stick’ attached to the tent wall underneath the vent.  Velcro this to the vent cover to open ridge vent.  Vent can be closed by lowering the stick.
    • Temperatures and humidity changes may cause the fabric to sag slightly.  This is normal, you can extend the hiking poles a little to tighten the tent and/or re-stake the tent. 
    • To lower the awning for ‘Storm Mode’  loosen the tie out cord and remove the awning pole (do not remove the stake to the tie out cord for the awning).  Attach a small carabineer to the loop of the orange loop at the tip of the awning and the 2 loops that are about 18 inches away on both sides of the tip of the awning.  Now, tighten the tie out cord so that the fly is now folded and the awning looks the same as the regular fly side.  
    • There is a small elastic loop near the top of the awning, and an elastic cord with a toggle on the underside of the awning, you can roll the awning up for full views and ventilation by securing the toggle to the loop on the outside of the tent.

    Seam Sealing

    It is easier to seam seal the tent when it is set up. You must use a silicone based seam sealer such as McNett SilNet seam sealer.
    1. Seam seal the fly from the OUTSIDE. Seal the entire ridge line from tip to tip
    2. Seam seal the floor patches from the INSIDE of the tent as well as the seam in the floor.
    3. Seam seal the edges of the bathtub floor for at least one foot from each end of the tent.
    4. It helps to place a few rows of seam sealer along the floor to provide traction.

    You can make your own seam sealer as follows
    • Clear silicone caulk (Purchased at any hardware store.)
    • Mineral Spirits - Commonly used for cleaning paint brushes.
    • Small brush to apply the sealer - a small foam brush works well.

    A Must Read That Belongs on Every Political, Social, or Military Strategist's Shelf
    Format: Hardcover
    LikeWar is the manual for warfare in the 21st century, a worthy successor to Singer's Ghost Fleet, and excellent debut work for Brooking. It belongs on the shelf of anyone who wants to seriously understand how war will be fought and social policy developed in the era of Facebook and Twitter. There is a particularly urgent need for this book at a time when most tacticians have their eyes firmly fixed on enhancing cybersecurity through the protection of systems and hardware. While this is undeniably important, LikeWar reminds us that the information that is transmitted over that infrastructure is no less, and possibly quite a bit more important than the infrastructure itself. This message has never been more urgent than today when democratic nations struggle with balancing the need for an open civil society against the risks of foreign subversion and influence. This is the next great battle. It will be fought in the trenches of Facebook and the swamps of Twitter - wise commanders will bring LikeWar with them as field guide. LikeWar stands out for its incredible scope and accessibility. Its coverage is comprehensive - everything from the 2016 election to the IDF's influence tactics are explored, analyzed, and fit into a comprehensive thesis about the changing face of war. Read LikeWar and you will have a confident grasp of the major developments in this new theater of combat. Yet the book remains eminently readable - this combat guide does not require a reader to slog through the bone-dry prose of a TRADOC manual or an academic paper. It is quick and engaging yet thorough at the same time. In short, Singer and Brooking have written a manual for combat in the new millennium that is both engaging and substantial enough to leave their reader a master of the new face of battle.

    Out of Control with Technology
    Format: Hardcover
    I found the book very interesting! The authors did a great job of discussing the benefits of different social media sites. While the sites were intended for good use, there is always a downside. Each of the sites were exploited over time for a use other than intended. While this is by no means a surprise, it is amazing how others were quick to use the sites for illegal purposes. The history of how some of the sites were developed was interesting too. Of additional interest was the amount of notes included in the book. A third of the book is devoted to this alone. It shows the level of thoroughness the authors took to allow readers to delve deeper into topics discussed in each chapter. The most pressing question for social media: What is the next level of advancement?

    All's fair in Like and War
    Format: Hardcover
    Is Mark Zuckerberg responsible for exacerbating the killing fields on the South Side of Chicago? What is China's Golden Shield Project and what might it mean for you? Did Michael Flynn have any good ideas before his fall from grace serving in the Trump administration? Read this book and you'll get the answers to these questions and many more. This book takes a notion with which most readers are likely already familiar - the internet has graduated from its nascent status as a series of tubes connecting nerds and defense contractors to that of an ineffably complex globe-gobbling organism engaged every hour of every day in the instantaneous distribution of information spanning all spectra of human activity - and combines it with one not so well established in the popular imagination - we (or, at least, everyone who uses the internet) are all potential foot soldiers, willing or not, in the online and offline wars still raging as well as those yet to come. Written in succinct, snappy prose, the book tells the story of the internet from its peculiar vantage point at the intersection of social media and military conflict with its arguments firmly based in factual and expert analysis. Those seeking to validate a particular political slant or ideology should look elsewhere.

    Insightful but troubled
    Format: Hardcover
    This book could have been so much more but it fell short. The book does capture a new phenomenon sweeping the world. The growth of social media is that phenomenon. The book does a good job chronicling the growth of social media and its impact on a general scale. Through that growth opportunities were created. The book does a good job of listing how people, groups and countries exploit these opportunities. They advance their respective agenda various ways on social media. I loved the pages which talked about how AI can create fake news with all of the authenticity of an eye witness account. The book lists impacts of these trends with crystal clear words. You can see impact clearer than any other source out there. The negative is the bias of the authors. Who the authors voted for in the last election screams out with every chapter. They use the topic as a club to bash republicans, President Trump, and conservatives. They miss how Democrats were playing the same games as Trump before Trump. This bias causes a reader to lose the message and dangers through politics. David Plouffe, the Obama campaign manager in his book "The Audacity to Win" said he used social media in 08 election. Funny how these people ignore those events to focus on what Republicans do. I also think their constant drum beat of what the Russians do creates a false election that they stole the election. The authors forget the failed policies of Hillary.
