Hi nas 1399, sorry I can't help with your question but hopefully someone will be along soon who can. Out of interest, I just 'googled' your tent to have a look if I could find some clues to your question and came up blank. Are you sure the description is correct?

I don't know about this tent but I'd start by laying the poles out and seeing whether they're all the same length. Then look at the fly/ inner to see where the pole sleeves are and which direction they run. This will give you an idea of whether they run straight across the width of the tent, or whether they cross over. If you have shorter poles and the sleeves go across the tent, then these would likely go on the sleeves on the outer end. Hope this helps a bit!

Have a look at Quest Leisure . I've got a Base Camp Montreal & it's a lovely little tent - very pleased with it
