So My Tent Broke, Need Advice
Posted: January 19th, 2019, 4:32 pm
Just this morning, I found my tent completely bent due to high winds.
I had each leg inside a 5-gallon bucket filled with cement, but it still managed to tip over and break.
It doesn't get really windy here, usually 5-7mph winds. But lately, the winds have been between 10-18mph, today they were at 30mph which is extremely rare here.
When I was done, I would lower it to it's lowest height setting and leave it. Never had a major problem till today.
What do you guys use to secure your tent?
Some pictures would be very helpful.
This was my setup 6 months ago when I barely started out.
It looks a bit simple but it was all I could afford. The custom canopies that I looked into were out of my budget.
