Wet pack ups are never any fun and do take the fun out of camping. Trick is to plan your next trip asap bit like falling off a bike get back on straight away.

Must admit it was nice this weekend not having to worry on the Sunday, and having a quicker set up on Friday evening but we did still try to ensure we got awning down dry in a break in weather so it doesn't remove the wet pack down completely although it is a lot easier I have to admit.
Towing home in 40mph gusts not as much fun as towing our old Pathfinder however.
Everything in life is a compromise just remember. Its about working our what's best for you at that point in your life

No fun atall..... We returned yesterday after packing up out Trigano Cheverny in strong winds and heavy rain....was a nightmare but today i have opened it all out and dried it, also ive fabsilled it this morning whilst it was all out......very disheartening to say the least and did put a dampener (sorry) on the entire weekend, going again in August so fingers crossed weather will be better :-)

I am not a fan of wet pack ups either, but I had 3 in 5 trips last year, so if you've only had 3 in 9 years you've done pretty well :) By the end of last year, i was beginning to think that dry pack ups didnt exist!!
