What you need is seam sealer not just waterproof spray. The tent is already waterproof, though when they sewed it together they put holes in the tent. That is what needs to be sealed against the rain. And you only have to seal the seams that are exposed (don't worry about the seams that are under the rain fly).

Practice setting up your tent in your backyard at home. Do it a couple of times, so you look like a pro.

as far as the tent, you just need the tent and the cover it comes with, and a plastic ground tarp to put under it, you can buy clear ones made for it. use seam sealer on the tent and boom, you're good.
otherwise, build a campfire and sit around it and cook meat and smores. matches, flashlights, meats, smore materials. done. also, why is illegal to bring a gun camping? |
