Hi all,

I purchased myself the montana 6 ground sheet a few weeks ago, I have already pitched it and tested it out, but when putting my tent on top I seem to have no footprint at the back of the tent, and about 18" of footprint showing at the front. I was thinking of laying the tent out about 18" in front of the footprint before pitching, so that when I lift the back pole up the tent should cover the whole footprint. Any ideas would be very helpfull.

If only I could camp all year round!

I'm a bit confused , do you have 18 inches less at the back of the tent as well? the motana measures 585cm, so assuming that you have the right footprint, you may not be lining the tent up over it correctly. is this what you mean?

or is it just 18 inches too long at the front and in the right place at the back?

if you peg the footprint out, then peg the 4 corners of the tent out , before you start on the poles , it should cover the whole footrint.
