ROLLING VS. STUFFING – The jury remains to be out on which methodology of packing up tents is finest for longevity. Folding your tent into thirds and rolling it with the poles within the heart protects the poles and could be gentler on the tent material than cramming it into the bag. As you begin to roll, use your hand to brush away grime, sand, pine needles or any particles, as you proceed to roll.
Carefully stuffing your tent right into a stuff sack is another choice. It’s fast and simple 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 joyful medium.
