What is a Guy Rope and Tent Guy Line?

If you are wondering, “what are guy lines on a tent” you are certainly not alone.  Guy rope, tent guy lines, and tent guy line tensioners refers to rope, cord, or twine materials used to tie a tent wall or rain tarp to the ground.  In other words, they are those thin pieces of rope you tend to walk into or trip over when walking to your tent without a flashlight!  

Benefits of Using Tent Guy Lines and Rope

Guy ropes and tent guy lines offer the extra support your tent needs to withstand rain, wind, and other natural elements helping to keep you dry and protected by allowing water to roll off the rain tarp rather than leaking into your tent at 2 AM.  Another benefit of using tent guy lines is ventilation.  If your rain tarp is resting directly on the tent walls, you will not have as much fresh airflow in the tent, and that can create an unpleasant internal atmosphere on a hot day.

How to Use Guy Rope Tensioners

Tent line guy tensioners are simple to use.  All you need to do is attach the guy line to the tent or rain tarp, which typically features readily available loops for easy attachment.  Once attached using your choice of knot (though two half hitch knots are recommended), you can anchor your guy lines to the ground with a stake.
