Check out my latest video! I set up my Big Agnes Copper Spur2 tent in the rain for the first time using the fly first method.
I made all the mistakes so you don’t have to! Click the link below

Thanks for the vid Nathan. I have never thought about setting up in the rain, as I only do overnighters in good weather. But definitely worth knowing if I ever get stuck. Thanks!

I am glad I did it. I now know the sort of silly mistakes i can make and avoid them. Glad you got something out of the video- makes it worth the effort.

Nice video! I’ve read that it is possible to do this but wondered about the procedures involved (not enough to do what you did though!). Thanks for going through the process. I’m now inspired to try this out with my Big Agnes Tiger Wall. I sympathize about having the fly inside out. On a family camping trip many years ago I set our tent up with the fly reversed and it rained all night with the obvious consequences. My daughters, to this day, have never let me forget my mistake!

Heh. Daughters are the best! Mine sat inside the house while she left the filming in the rain to her brother:)
