Has anyone erected the new Outwell Hartford Canopy.  Ive just bought mine and erected it but hadnt time to put the tent up.  If you have one and have attached it to your tent did you attach it and then put the tent fly sheet up or did you put the fly sheet up and then attach the canopy?  Feed back would be appreciated.

Happy camping for 2006

Snowgoose

I looked at the measurements but was still suprised how big the canopy is!  I have a Hartford S and the new canopy is almost as big !!!

Put the tent up first and then attach the canopy it's the only way to do it really.

What does the canopy look like? I’ve had a quick Google, but couldn’t find it. Does anyone have a URL they could post, please.

Hi There

We have a 2004 hartford XXL and it is a different colour to the new XXL.  What colour is the canopy?  The tent is exactly the same size so no problem there.

Bye

You need to fully erect the tent, including the flysheet then the canopy is erected seperately and goes over the existing small porch at the front of the tent.
