Another method is to have the crew hold the crew's dinning fly over the tent
while it is set up or taken down in the rain. You can only set up or take
down one tent at a time, but in a heavy rain, it allows you to keep from
getting everything soaked.

We took trek 30 on 721 last summer. It rained every day but two and for
long periods. We had to address drying tents. I realize that tents are a
personal preference, but if you have a tent that clips to the poles (as
opposed to sleeves),can be set up without the tent and has a separate
rainfly, you can, in most cases, take down the tent under the cover of the
rainfly. For that matter, you can set up the tent inside of the rainfly.
That way, the tent itself isn't rained on as you're setting it up and taking
it down.
