my new montana 6 tent arrived today. on opening the box it appears that there are no poles, the tent is in a large blue holdall, and thats all there is. do the poles come in a separate bag?

Poles come in a seperate bag. We collected our Monty from a London shop not realising there should have been 2 bags. Idiots that we are didn't put up tent until on holiday in Yorkshire, could find no poles. Had to make do with our emergency 2 person tent for the 1st night then bought a larger cheap tent for the rest of the holiday. We'll never make the same mistake again!
I presume you have had the tent out of it's bag and unrolled it? Only my Caroline 3 tent poles are in a seperate bag but they were rolled inside the tent within the tent bag when it arrived...just a thought.

i unrolled it the best i could inside, i could not feel any thing felt like poles inside it. i would of thought that there would be quite a few.
Ok...doesn't sound like they are there then. What about the tent pegs...are they missing too? And it might be as well to check that the guy lines are present.

there was a small bag that felt like it had pegs in it, looks like its just the poles that are missing. i emailed millets yesterday but heard nothing yet. i'll ring them tomorrow.
Trust me you will know if the poles are there, they wont fit in the tent & you wouldnt lift it either, the pegs are in a separate bag & the guys are attached.
