• in that situation the problem is with your tent, it should never be letting water in.

    and if it does really rain every minute for three days straight or more, just find somewhere to dry your kit off for an hour or two inside.

    The tent was fine, the problem was that I had to put it away wet every morning because it rained overnight every day. So the fly sheet soaked through and the wet groundsheet made the inner wet as well.

    Yeah, I could have done that... but it only would have stayed dry until the next morning!

    Despite my complaining and the rain it was amazing, everyone should go (the beach is Huishnish, other photo is the Quiraing on Skye but it was the same trip)

  • if the tent is wet, you can:

    1) pack the outer and the inner separately
    2) pack the tent on the outside of your bags so it dries in the wind
    3) roll it carefully so the wet part remains on the outside, water can't get in as tent fabric is waterproof

    agreed on the awesome location!
