I have this four-season tent that I bought used. It is so stiff that you can sit on it once it is set up. The thing is, the tent is so tight that it's hard for one person to get the poles in place.
I'm thinking about taking a tubing cutter and shortening the poles slightly, reducing the tension a little so that the tent can actually be set up by one person. Is this a terrible idea? Or do I just need to learn some trick for getting this tent put together?
Thanks for any input.
Oh, and the tent is a Jansport Bomber.
