Pads side by side at their listed sizes, with the average man (5 ft 9 in) lying on each. "Tight" is under an inch to a wall or the sloping roof: the fabric gives, but a wet wall wets what touches it. Open it in TentCheck to try your own pads, cots and gear, or read how fits are checked.

| Roof overhead | Floor | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Anywhere | 30.6 sq ft | 100% |
| 12 in or more | 28.8 sq ft | 94% |

From the modeled roof, not measured. About 36 in is where an average adult sits up straight on a pad: a 35 in sitting height, plus the pad.
| Floor (listed) | 88.2 × 53.9/46.1 in, 30.6 sq ft |

| Peak | 42.1 in (3 ft 6 in) |
| Vestibules | 9.7 sq ft + 6.5 sq ft |

| Sit-up room on a pad, at the peak | +6.1 in for 35 in sitting height |
| Pitched footprint | 88.2 × 99.5 in (7 ft 4 in × 8 ft 4 in), floor and vestibules |
| Groundsheet to cut | About 86.2 × 51.9/44.1 in |
Floor and vestibules together cover 88.2 × 99.5 in. On a square tent pad, as campgrounds list them: 8 × 8 ft: doesn't fit; 10 × 10 ft: fits; 12 × 12 ft: fits. Guylines and stakes need more room around that.
For a groundsheet, cut it a little smaller than the floor, about 2 in, so rain running off the fly doesn't collect on it and run under the tent: about 86.2 × 51.9/44.1 in.
Floor 88.2 × 53.9/46.1 in, 42.1 in peak, two D-shaped doors with a 9.7 and a 6.5 ft² vestibule. Its packaged weight includes the footprint that comes with it. Marmot lists the floor area but not its dimensions; they are REI’s.
Roof shapes are modeled from the floor, the peak and how the poles hold the walls, not measured. Treat a result within an inch or two as too close to call.
