Hello all,  We are new to camping and decided to give it a try....  We purchased a blue ridge panama tent, I was wondering if anyone else had one of these as I am looking for some advice regarding erecting the tent...

Thanks

I think I've got one of those - it's not branded as a Blue Ridge but I'm sure that's what it is.  Can I help?

apologies for not replying sooner, our computer has been on the blink!  The instructions we had were rubbish, however after many attempts, we have finally managed to erect it!  Thanks for the responses.

Kind regards,

Kelly

Hi Kelly.  I've just looked at the instructions that came with mine and you're right, they are rubbish.  I found it easiest to look at a a photo of the tent to see how it should go up.  Then all you need to do is sort out the two poles that form the X on the roof of the dome, the 4 poles that are the uprights for the dome section and the remaining two poles form the hoop section at either side (over the bedroom pods).  I've got a decent photo of the tent showing how it should look if you want it.

Lots of videos on you tube for pitching various tents always worth a look to see if your particular tent is on there.
