The Ground Control guy ropes offer maximum flexibility to secure the tent in strong wind conditions. They are sold separately, and come standard with all Alto and Telos tents. The reflective leads feature the special Quick Connect V-toggles that eliminate the need for knots. Multiple guy loops are positioned so that the tent can be moved in strong winds and storms depending on the wind direction with the help of the guy ropes to increase stability. So the leads can either be adjusted with the integrated adjuster or several lines can be connected together.
