The Satellite is a floor-less tent, designed for use in snow and
rugged terrain. An optional floor/footprint can be purchased
to create a removable waterproof floor. Attach this floor by
clipping the snap hooks which are sewn to it to the O-rings
located on the inside tent perimeter (Figure 9).

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR
TENT ON THE TRAIL

Stormproofing Your Tent

Even though most of our tents are free-standing, we recommend
you always stake out your tent to prevent it from flying away in
a gust of wind. Secure all stake-out webbing loops located on the
perimeter of the tent. Attach all external guy lines to tent pole
intersections (Figure 10).
