Hi there,

We are lucky enough to be the proud owners of an outwell wolf lake 7 tent which is fab but i do hate the nylon guy ropes. On our Hartford XL we had the nice thick cotton ones. I was going to change them all but then OH suggested maybe the nylon ones were for added strength, it being a heavier polycotton tent with steel poles. Does anyvbody know the reason for the change? Is it practical or economical and will it matter if I swap them?

Many thanks

Polly

PS off to Woolacombe in 2 weeks and praying for better weather than last year!
