ROLLING VS. STUFFING – The jury remains to be out on which technique of packing up tents is greatest for longevity. Folding your tent into thirds and rolling it with the poles within the heart protects the poles and might be gentler on the tent cloth than cramming it into the bag. As you begin to roll, use your hand to brush away dust, sand, pine needles or any particles, as you proceed to roll.
Rigorously stuffing your tent right into a stuff sack is an alternative choice. It’s fast and straightforward to do that on the path (particularly when a tent is moist) and doesn’t put stress on the identical spots over and over like folding and rolling does. Switching backwards and forwards between these two strategies – stuffing on the path and rolling for storage after cleansing/drying – is an efficient glad medium.
