G'day Lorraine,

Unfortunately, the Tourer Side Pole Kit won't suit the Tourer 10 Plus tent. We don't sell the Tourer 10, but Oztrail appears to sell the Tourer 10 Plus side pole kits direct on their website.

G'day Rachelle,

The Tourer 9 tent will stay up by pegging out the tent corners while using the Side Pole Kit. We'd generally recommend using the guy ropes as this will provide plenty of support in case the wind picks up.

G'day Jack, 

We haven't tried this ourselves, but it looks like it will be difficult to pack it flat if you left the pole in. 

It's likely you will have to detach the top pole section before packing it up, so that it will fit properly in the bag the Tourer 9 comes with. 

Also keep in mind, that in general we don't recommend leaving poles in a tent when packing down as it can cause damage to the tent. 

It's hard to say for sure Wil, as the Hi Country tent is not one that we stock! I've looked up the Hi Country tent and it seems the floor dimensions are the same, although the Hi Country tent has a higher maximum head height. My thoughts are that it would probably work, but as we're not able to test it I can't give you a definite answer.
