    ALL OF THEM!...Then some more.

    Talks are ladder supports. Screw into the sides of the Ladd and floor of the tent for extra support. Hinges go to them as well if you already have the ladder installed. Otherwise those are the ladder hinges.

    Not really needed for the Shasta. I'd just leave it off

    That would be great! I'm wondering how it looks mounted and deployed at that level. Also how useable the annex room will be with the tent at that level. Sorry man I've just got a lot of questions in my head lol

    No tracking number yet, hopefully it's floating around the country somewhere. Has anyone on the east coast received theirs yet?

    Perhaps he was only able to get a handful out before he had to head to Moab with tents. Have faith, you will get it.

    Bonus was that Bobby threw in a free LED light for the tent!!!

    Good news...I received my tent yesterday, the Rainier.

    Bad news...It looks like I was supposed to get the ladder supports you got for your Shasta but they weren't included with my tent/shipment.

    Also, are you supposed to remove the plastic wrapping from the bottom...or just leave it on there?

    I left it on. At least until it started getting ragged, then I took it off. No harm in either.

    I was wondering if that was what happened....probably had several tents laid out for shipping and the wrong parts got put in with the wrong tent.

    I left the plastic on for now, figured its just keeping the tent a little cleaner

    I actually spoke to Bobby on the phone about 20 minutes ago and he stated that the ladder supports are now sent with ALL tents.

    Call him and let him know, I am absolutely positive he will fix you up!

    So...after further review...they are here. They come in a separate bag with the mounting hardware.

    So, no more bad news, and I will just leave the plastic on until it falls off.

    I haven't finished my install yet, but I can't figure out what the two tent stake type parts are for...anyone?

    If you have a tent with the overhang, you use the stakes to tie it down so it doesn't flap in the wind. You should have some ropes to use with them as well - they are probably attached to the overhang.

    I didn't always strap the overhang down - saves effort and tripping over guy wires - and one night a storm blew in and caught it like parachute, lifting that end of the tent. That was thrilling. I tie it down every night now.

    you should have a couple of guy lines for the the annex...the stakes are for those

    Like this...see the lines on the outside corners of the annex?
