Tent Poles?

Post by Above_Treeline »

I have an old tent, I think it's a coleman? Dome tent. But somehow the wrong poles, from a smaller tent, got put in with this tent. So it blows over pretty easily.

Any tips on getting the correct sized ones? Seems like a decent tent, actually. Has the "tub" on the bottom.

It may have the Rain fly, tips welcome, there, too. Not sure if the original is sufficient.

I seem to recall a scene from No Country for Old Men about this...
