packing down your tent

It is VITAL that your tent is only stored when it is
bone dry
.
If you store your tent whilst it’s damp or wet, it may be affected by mildew.
It’s perfectly fine to take down your tent whilst it is still wet.
However... you MUST ensure to hang it up to
dry within 48 hours
.
This can be achieved by hanging the tent on a washing line, or equivalent,
and leaving it to air dry.
Take the poles and pegs out of the tent and if necessary
give them a clean and towel dry before packing away.
Try to keep the canvas on top of the groundsheet and
not in contact with the grass.
Bring the curved edge back on itself so that you are left
with a rectangle, and then fold it in half lengthways.
Smoothing and releasing any trapped air as you go,
begin to tightly roll the tent forwards. Once completed,
use the straps to secure the rolled up tent together and
place it back into the provided tent bag.
Without standing on the canvas, fold the tent in half and
back on itself so that it resembles a half moon shape.
