Kelty  Discovery Basecamp 6 Footprint

There’s reviews on here that says the footprint doesn’t fit. It fits. It’s a rectangle, not a square. Move it around. Hook it in the clasp that’s meant for it.

I just bought the Discovery 6 tent and this footprint that is supposed to match, but when I did a test pitch in the backyard and found that the footprint doesn’t fit the tent. I know that the footprint is supposed to be a few inches smaller than the tent, but the stake down points at the corners don’t reach the corners of the tent, meaning that the footprint has to be staked down separately. This means you need 4 extra stakes, and could pose a problem depending on the terrain. I could see the stakes poking through the tent floor depending on where it is pitched. I haven’t measured, but the actual covered area seems a bit small too, smaller than necessary.

fits the tent and does it's job! I recommend this because you never know where you might wind up camping and it's great to have on hand

Have used twice. Worked exactly as it should. Easy connection to poles to stay in place.

I use this as a tarp. Flip this over from its orientation as a ground Cloth and it becomes a great tarp.

I alway buy the correct foot print for the tent. The days of tarp ground covers are over for me
