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.

On the campsite

Floor and vestibules together cover 128.4 × 193.2 in. On a square tent pad, as campgrounds list them: 8 × 8 ft: doesn't fit; 10 × 10 ft: doesn't fit; 12 × 12 ft: doesn't fit. 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 84.4 × 53.2 in.

Notes

A one-person inner tent hung under a hexagonal tarp, which stands on a 210 cm pole at its front apex and a 120 cm pole just behind the inner tent. The inner is 86.4 × 55.2 in with a 41 in peak; you lie along its 86.4 in side, parallel to the doors. The tarp's high front makes a living space in front of the door, and its low back a small rear room with a second door.

Sources

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.
