Just spent the past weekend car camping in the Whites and we got to test out our setup. We had to contend with rain all weekend. I am pretty satisfied because we set up in the rain and stayed dry all weekend.

I thought of another way to keep rain out of your tent - but it may not be an ideal solution.......
Ready?...... Wait for it.......
Don't bring a tent.

Pick the spot to set up your tent carefully. You could have 10 tarps but if your in a low area and it rains hard it wont matter. MJ typically gets damp in the flat part of the camping area.
Keep some of your gear in the car or inside garbage bags in the tent. At least your tent floods you will have some dry stuff.

There are many different sprays and impregnations that will help make the tent more waterproof. During the rest in the tent, a couple of times, we fell under a raging downpour,  my boyfriend uses the spray shop.ebay.co.uk/?_from=R40&_trksid=m38.l1313&_nkw=Nikwax Nikwax, but as well as an alternative can come up the usual car polish, wet it with a rag and wipe the fabric. In general, all tents (any) are treated with a special composition and don't flow if they aren't washed with powder! Additional processing, I think, will accurately shorten the life of the tent, read here bestoutdooritems.com/best-frame-tent/ ye and why spend the extra money on unnecessary things!?  |
