Hey Housil,

My CAtoma tent is almost exactly the same except that it doesn't have woodland camo on the rainfly it has tan and solid green as the colors.

So when you pitch the inner tent you don't use any tent pegs with the inner tent? Do you just peg the rain fly?

CAn you send me some close up pictures of how and where you used the pegs on the straps?


Thanks


Mike

There are this "loops" for the pegs at the inner tent only. The rainfly is also attached via the buckle to them.

If not, don´t hesitate to ask for more!

Hey Housil!!!

Okay so I get how the poles, tent and rain Fly come together but...how do you actually stake the tent to the ground? Meaning...What part of the tent does the peg touch or use to stake the tent?
