Setup Notes
Avalon tents are best installed on flat, open ground with enough room for the tent, guy lines, and stakes. Proper staking and tensioning are required for stability.
Larger sizes may require more setup space and are easier with two or more people. The 23' Optimus is especially large and should be planned as a full-scale outdoor shelter setup.
Care & Important Notes
Canvas must be fully dried before storage to help prevent mildew, odor, or fabric damage. Customer is responsible for proper setup, drying, cleaning, storage, and routine care.
This tent is heavier than most synthetic tents and is best suited for car camping, glamping, basecamp use, or semi-permanent outdoor setups. Natural canvas may vary slightly in tone, texture, and appearance.
When using a stove, always follow the tent and stove manufacturer’s safety instructions, ventilation requirements, clearance guidance, and local fire regulations. A fire-retardant option is recommended if you plan to use a stove.
