    Now you are rooting for rain right!

    You can set it up to have 'doors' too.

    If i remember right ... Keep the ridge line set as you have it, stake the bottom to the ground from the second & fourth tie outs along the bottom, this will leave the ends of that panel 'free/flapping' simply pull them towards each other and run guy lines for those.

    Here's a pic from google images ... I believe this is someone on HF picture.


    Hope this helps! I enjoyed my Kelty Noah.

    Take pics while you are out for us.

    Also ... not sure what you are using to rig/tie your ridge line, but I love the Nite Ize figure 9's. They make set up and adjusting a breeeeze. I'm not great at knots so using these allowed me to keep a tight ridge line with no knots.

    I am a boy scout so I am tying knots always and love it the taught line hitch is what i generally use for my ridge line.

    haha, good for you then ... your ridgeline does look nice & tight. I guess I was taking all the fun out of it with that last suggestion. If I knew how to do them better, i'd probably use them as much as I could. I can tie my shoe and a great knot to tie my fishing lures that my grandfather taught me years ago, other than that I struggle greatly.

    I was taught a taught line hitch in Boy Scouts too. I still use it for my tarp lines

    It is a very great knot for ridge lines and guy lines and drops the extra weight of accessories.
