Well, I have a question about the older Hubba w/mesh! I set it up in my home and when it came to the fly, the directions said pull taught and stake out. It does not reach the ground in back and so it can't be staked with the line provided. At the front vestible it reaches the ground only if you leave it loose and droopy. If you pull it taught to give yourself some actual vestible room, the lines wont reach the ground to be staked. What am I doing wrong?

The back needs a piece of guy-out cord attached in order for it to be staked out. It was designed to not reach the ground to provide for some ventilation. The vestibule should have the ability to be staked out however. Once staked, the fly should be fairly taught. The thing to remember is that there should be a gap between the ground and the fly of about 6 inches or so.
