PITCHING:

The Cimarron is a rectangle based structure and is therefore easy to pitch.

• Pick your sleeping area and desired door location - this dictates how you pitch the shelter.
• Stake the four corners in a rectangle, making sure the angles are as square and true as possible.  Do not overstretch the fabric or you will result in a bell shape at the bottom that reduces interior space.
• Make sure vent is open or closed, stovejack is open or closed, as desired. (Harder to reach once pole is up)
• Insert the pole and raise the shelter.
• Stake out the doors.

KNOTS:  

Read Knots You Should Know to learn our favorite ways of rigging cordage to perform tasks.  The most common tasks you'll find are:

• Putting a Prusik On The Pole to pitch a nest or rig a dryline for hanging gear. 
• Tying guyline or mainline to a tree or branch. 
• Connecting line to a guyout. 
• Tying off to a stake.

INTRO TO HOT TENTS:

The most common questions we get about hot tents are:

• How do you not burn the tent down?  
• The stove jack is a high temp fiberglass material rated to several thousand degrees.  The tent material never touches the hot pipe.  You can get pinholes from floating embers, but a small dab of silicone seals the pinhole and doesn't hurt the shelter.
• How does a floorless shelter work in wet weather?
• Really darn well.  Don't pitch in a depression obviously, but the ground inside dries out quickly, and it's super convenient to just walk in with muddy shoes (or dogs) and not worry about getting your floor dirty.
• What about condensation?
• It's single wall, there will be condensation in some conditions.  Liners help a lot, as do stoves.  Mostly you just have to learn to manage it.  Read 5 Ways to Manage Condensation in Seek Outside Tents
• What about carbon monoxide?
• It's truly not a concern.  We include a peak vent, plus the shelter will draw air through the zipper and under the sod skirt.  If you're still concerned, leave a door unzipped 8" or so at the bottom to allow more venting.

FAQ:

• Does the Cimarron have interior hang loops for drying? 
• The method we prefer is a prusik knot on the pole for both drying heavy gear and attaching a nest. The prusik on a pole method is strong and secure.
• Why doesn't the Cimarron have corner guy outs? 
• The Cimarron is not a normal pyramid / mid shelter like others have produced before. It has slight shaping and a different seam construction that provides better seam integrity and less stretch at the corners. We do put guy outs where they make sense and provide a usability and performance benefit. In our testing, and due to the way the Cimarron is designed we feel corner guy out locations are a detriment not a benefit.
