Wyoming Trail 4

WYOMING TRAIL 4 SET UP INSTRUCTIONS:


1. Remove contents from stuff sack and spread out the tent body over your desired camp site.
2. Stake out the four corners of each tent body, making sure the webbing straps between the bodies are fully extended so they create the oversized vestibule space in the middle.
3. Assemble the poles: two long poles for the main structure, two medium length single poles that go across the back of the tent bodies and two shorter single poles that span the inner vestibule space.
4. To ensure each pole section is fully seated, insert each pole section into the next by hand, instead of allowing the shock cord to snap them together.
5. Arrange the two long poles in an X on the ground, with the one that has the locking hub (Swivel TLH) underneath the other long pole. Connect these two long poles by seating the plastic ring at the center of the top pole into the locking hub on the pole beneath. Ensure the plastic ring is fully seated into the locking hub before closing it. These two poles are now the pole set with hub that creates the main structure of the tent.
6. Insert the pole tips of the pole set with hub (described above) into the grommets at the outside corners of the tent bodies.
7. Insert the pole tips of the medium length single pole into the grommets at the front sides of the tent body located near the center vestibule, matching the pole color with the webbing on the tent body. This pole will wrap around the back of the tent body. Repeat this for both tent bodies.
8. Connect these poles to the locking hubs (Swivel TLH) on the main pole set and ensure that the plastic ring is fully seated into the locking hubs before closing them.
9. Find the molded clips located at top of the front door of each body and connect them to the corresponding metal rings on the main pole set.
10. Connect the H-clips on each tent body to the bottom attachment on the locking hubs (Swivel TLH).
11. Working your way around the perimeter of the tent, connect the remaining clips to the corresponding pole sections.
12. At this point you will have a free-standing structure.
13. Drape the rainfly over the tent body and match the colors of the webbing on the fly with the webbing on the tent body.
14. Attach all Velcro® straps on the underside of the fly to the corresponding poles. The Velcro® straps are located beneath the guyout points and should all be properly secured to improve overall structural integrity.
15. Next, take the two shorter poles and find the fabric sleeves located on the underside of the fly at the center of the tent, be-tween the two tent bodies. Insert the poles into the sleeves and secure the ends of each pole into the small pockets located at the top of the vestibule zippers in the oversized center vestibule space.
16. Make sure the webbing at each buckle on the fly is completely slackened. Attach the buckles on the fly to those on the tent body.
17. Tighten the webbing on each buckle as needed to keep the fly taut.
18. Stake out the vestibules off the tent bodies.
19. Stake out all guylines and adjust as needed to take the remaining slack out of the guylines.
20. Enjoy your Wyoming Trail 4 tent!

Separate 6” length pole segment included for emergency field repair. Slide repair pole over the break to act as a splint. Secure splint in place with tape.


FAST FLY SET UP INSTRUCTIONS


If you purchase the optional Big Agnes footprint for your Wyoming Trail, it will enable you to pitch a Fast Fly shelter while leaving the tent body behind. The Fast Fly configuration requires the footprint, rainfly, poles and stakes.

1. Lay the footprint on the ground and stake out.
2. Assemble the poles: two long poles, two medium poles and two shorter poles. To ensure each pole section is fully seated insert each pole section into the next by hand instead of allowing the shock cord to snap them together.
3. Position the two long poles on top of the footprint, making sure that the one with the locking hub (Swivel TLH) is underneath the other pole. Connect these two long poles by seating the plastic ring at the center of the top pole into the locking hub on the pole beneath. Ensure the plastic ring is fully seated into the locking hub before closing it.
4. Insert the pole tips of the two long poles (connected together in step above) into the grommets at the four corners of the footprint.
5. Install each of the medium length poles so that they cross over the pole structure that is already set up, inserting the pole tips into the grommets on each side of the footprint, matching the pole color with the webbing on the footprint.
6. Connect these poles to the locking hubs (Swivel TLH) on the main pole set and ensure that the plastic ring is fully seated into the locking hubs before closing them.
7. Drape the rainfly over the standing poles, aligning it so that the color coded buckles on the fly match up with the color coded webbing on the footprint.
8. Attach all the Velcro® loops on the underside of the fly to the corresponding poles for the best stability.
9. Next, insert the two shorter poles into the fabric sleeves located on the underside of the fly at the center of the tent. Secure the ends of each pole into the small pockets located at the top of the vestibule zippers.
10. Make sure the webbing at each buckle on the fly is completely slackened. Attach the buckles on the fly to those on the footprint.
11. Tighten the webbing on each buckle as needed to keep the fly taut. This will also help keep the poles in place.
12. Stake out the vestibules at each end of the tent.
13. Stake out all guylines and adjust as needed to tighten them.

NOTE: You can create a super-sized vestibule space with one sleeping area by using just one tent body. This requires the footprint to stabilize the structure. Unbuckle the webbing that connects the tent bodies to separate them. Then set up your tent using the footprint and only one body.


HELPFUL HINTS FOR TENT SET UP


Our tents are easy to set up but we suggest you practice once at home before using them for the first time to avoid late night bickering with tent mates while fumbling around in the dark.
Before pitching tent, clear campsite of debris that may pierce tent floor.
We recommend staking out all corners, vestibules and guylines to increase space and ventilation. Securely staking out your tent and all guylines is crucial to maintaining the structural integrity of your tent.
Hang onto your stuff sacks or they’ll blow away and create backcountry litter.
Pull on the pole sleeve fabric when inserting poles to avoid any bunching in the material.
Push rather than pull poles through pole sleeves.
