COMES WITH:

PITCHING:
- Put in the primary door stake.
- Take the opposite door stake loop and stretch the tipi out taut (not stretched). Decide where you want to sleep or where to place the stove.
- Place your hand on the door guyout, fold the fabric towards the opposite door. The guyout is the middle of the fold. The stake loop lands very close to the proper setback. (Setback is 2X distance from guyout to sod skirt below stake loop in door.)
- Start setting the seam stake loops next to the doors first, then move from door to door, using the side setbacks.
- The recommended setbacks are for a standard no guy out pitch. If you want more space or better snow shedding, move the setbacks in towards the center by 1-2 inches from the recommended setback, raise the pole by an inch, and use the side guy outs.
Watch Here!
SEAM SEALING:
- To seal the shelter, pitch it normally and seal the outside seams. Note: this is difficult on taller tents
- You can run a thin bead of sealant along the seam, press it in with a finger, and wipe away excess on a paper towel.
- Alternatively, you can use an acid brush from a hardware store to spread the sealant.
INFO ON HOT TENTS:
Temperature Rating- We use high temp silicone coated fiberglass material, rated to several thousand degrees, for the stove jack. The tent material never touches the hot pipe. If there are any pinholes from floating embers, they can be sealed with a small dab of silicone without damaging the shelter.
- Condensation may occur in single-wall shelters, but can be managed with liners and stoves. For more information, check out our tips on managing condensation.
- Carbon monoxide is not a concern in these shelters due to the peak vent and air flow from the zipper and sod skirt. If necessary, leave a door unzipped for more venting
FAQ:
I- The 6 person tipi has more floor area, but the ergonomics of the Redcliff make it feel more spacious. Because the Redcliff is designed around a rectangular floor area, the Redcliff may feel more spacious than the circular floor plan of the 6 person tipi
- Yes! The Cimarron/ Redcliff half nest will work while using a stove. This is a great option for those that want a bucket floor and bug netting while using a stove inside the Redcliff
