Seriously. I don't think I've ever encountered anything more complex than: extendo poles make X, tent clips go on X, stake into ground.

Most the time, you don't even need to stake it, just throw in the weight of your gear, especially if you grab a reasonably unexposed site and the weather is optimal. Nowadays, some tents are like two poles that snap together automatically. But if you're a grump in the dark, it's a living hell.

Dark isn't too bad if you're familiar with the tent but I once tried to assemble one in 30-40mph winds and that was a special kind of suffering.

That's a lost cause. You're trying to wrangle a sail in the wind. And then what? You're going to sleep in there? Might as well be trying to carry around sheets of plywood.

Once I got it hammered in it was a glorious spot of calm, though it took 30 minutes and some help. One or two guys said fuck it and stacked bags to block the wind and just slept in the open behind them. Can't fault them.

Ah, that's a relief.
