Admit it, you have walked out of your tent, turned and tripped over the guyline coming off the fly of the tent. After a few choice words, you probably looked for something to put on it so you would notice it better. Tent guylines can truly be a safety hazard for all campers from children to pets.
I can’t even count the amount of times my dog has run right in to the guyline when going around the tent. There are not many choices on the market for colored guyline and no one wants to spend time to undo the current guyline and string through the new one.
How To Do
Prepare a 10 inch section of tinfoil that you can rip in to 3-4 strips. Start at the bottom of the guy line and just wrap the tinfoil around the line. Continue moving up the guyline until it is near where the tent begins. It is not necessary to wrap the entire guyline since only a small portion of the line is a tripping hazard. Do this on all guylines to easily help prevent tripping around the tent.
This is a super easy hack for tent safety, it only takes a few minutes to complete but can save a lot of stub toes and tripping over your tent.
