     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.

    Favorite graphic novel of all time
    Format: Paperback
    Daisy Kutter used to be train robber. And she used to be partners (and perhaps more) with Tom. But those days are past as Tom is now the Sherif and Daisy is owner of local general store...and bored out of her mind. She can't acclimate herself to "normal" life like Tom can and one night trying to relive her boredom she loses the store in a poker game. Mr. Winters, who she lost the store to, has a proposition though: try to rob his train and test his new security robots. And he's willing to pay. But it appears that not everything is on the up and up. And Daisy and Tom are fighting to survive. Set in a steampunk version of the old west, where robots and humans live together, Kibuishi creates a masterful story that has a great deal of humor. You know that classic stoic character in the old west movies? That's Daisy. But instead of being played by some curmudgeonly old man, it's played by a young woman with a bit of humor to her, which is a nice change of pace. The relationship between Tom and Daisy is set up beautifully and it's easy to relate to them and understand where both of them are coming from. The artwork has some of the elegance and detail that can be found in Kibuishi's current series, , but in a bit simpler style. It's a completely black & white, but Kibuishi uses the gray tones effectively to create a lot of depth and energy to the characters. And with just a few simple lines Kibuishi gives us memorable characters that keep us coming back for more. I especially love the close ups of the characters eyes, particularly Daisy's. When those happen we get a real sense of who the character is and the emotion that they're feeling at the time. Like the title says, this is my favorite graphic novel of all time. It was the first one I ever picked up so yeah it hold some sentimental value, but the combination of a great story and great artwork make this a must read for anyone. My one complaint...no sequel (although there is a short story in Flight volume 6)!

    Comic Excellence
    Format: Paperback
    An ALA Best Book for Young Adults, this graphic novel is one of a growing number of high quality comics appropriate for both young adult as well as adult audiences. I particularly like the way the book blends the western and science fiction themes. Daisy Kutter is a fascinating character with more depth than many graphic novels. I look forward to other books in this series.

    The Hipster Spies With His Mystic Eye Something That Begins With--The Old West through a fractured lens
    Format: Paperback
    Set in a strange, Futurist version of the Wild West, female ex-bandit Daisy Kutter is tricked into one last train robbery. But all is not as it seems. It has wry humor, an appealing lead character, a real feel for the West, & fun art. I'll bet my eyeteeth the cartoonist has a shelf full of Lamour Westerns at home. This belongs in an odd little sub-genre called the Weird West, claimed equally by Westerns, Science Fiction, Fantasy & Horror, all set in the latter half of America's 19th Century, & west of the Mississippi. I wanna see more of Miss Daisy Kutter. The Hipster gives it a big Thumbs Up!
