Kaitum 2
$1,185.00
Description

  Maximum usable space, outstanding comfort, and strength in a lightweight package

  Because of its two door/two vestibule configuration, its lightweight yet strong materials and its smart design, the Hilleberg Kaitum 2 provides a stunning balance of super light weight, overall comfort and high strength. Backpackers gravitate toward the Kaitum 2’s light weight and remarkable roominess, as do paddle and bicycle tourers, who also appreciate its small packed size. Hunters, winter campers, ski tourers, and climbers favor the Kaitum 2 because of its all-season strength as well as its low weight. And taller users will find the Kaitum 2’s plentiful floor space, vertical entrances, and vertical walls a roomy pleasure.

  A note on colors: Fabric dyes have natural variations, so the actual tent color may look slightly different from what is pictured here.

This Hiker Hydration Hack Is Now a Product You Can Buy
  Almost every hiker box I have ever seen after 11,000 miles on American trails has the same litter problem: the thin plastic water bags that accompany the popular Sawyer Squeeze, the most efficient and reliable water filter I have ever used. In theory, these ubiquitous black-and-blue mylar bags are a hikers dream, able to hold nearly a liter of water...
Brave the Elements in These Burly Bottom Layers: Black Diamond Alpine Pants Review
  We woke up in the dark, rubbing the sleep out of our eyes, anxiously anticipating our summit push. The slight chill in the air would mean better snow travel conditions for our ascent, so we dragged ourselves out of our cozy sleeping bags and fired up our stove for instant coffee. Alpine starts are always rough at first, but we...

The Cold Hard Facts of Freezing to Death
  What happens to your body when you get lost and confused on a mountain in the bitter cold of a winter night?

Zero-Drop Trail Runner Gets Durability Upgrade: Altra Lone Peak 9 Review
  The snow was slick white on the Rocky Mountain trail in Colorado. It had been packed into a luge-like grade that sloped outward toward some exposed rocky terrain. The February cold pressed in as I hiked in the new Altra Lone Peak 9 shoes. Normally, this time of year, I’d be wearing boots or some sort of traction device, but...
Pretty Punisher: GiantMouse ACE Tribeca Review
  “Hey, does anyone have a knife handy?” The words ring like music to my ears. I have no shortage of pocket blades to offer, but today, I have one of the most high-profile, expensive folding knives Ive ever carried, begging to take the spotlight.   I pluck the GiantMouse ACE Tribeca from my pocket and feel the still-unfamiliar smoothness of the...
Columbia, NASCAR Resurrect Iconic ‘Bugaboo’ Jacket With Uncanny Throwback Car
  Motorsports fans and gear nerds can unite this weekend when the number 23 Toyota — driven by Bubba Wallace and sponsored by Columbia Sportswear — blazes laps at Atlanta Motor Speedway in an unmistakably outdoor-themed car.

How Vert-Tracking Apps Are Reshaping Ski Culture
  Robert Baker clicks his flame-orange Tecnica boots into his bindings on the summit of Rendezvous Mountain, the high point of Jackson Hole Mountain Resort. Folks are just waking up in the valley below, but at 53, with bristling gray eyebrows, perma-rosied cheeks and a mariners beard, Baker wastes no time.   I watch Baker drop into Rendezvous Bowl, his skis cutting...

Range Rover Launches Fashion Apparel: ‘London Collection’
  If James Bond had a Hot Wheels collection, he probably wouldnt miss out on the limited-edition sculptures just dropped by Range Rover. Hed be obligated to buy in, really, given the iconic vehicles placement in No Time to Die. And since hes a globe-trotting super spy, he likely wouldnt blink at paying $563 just for an all-aluminum version of a...

Ice Fishing Safety 101: Tips, Hazards, Gear, and More
  Ice fishing is one of the few sports where sitting in a chair and drinking coffee (or beer) counts as peak performance. Its just you, a frozen body of water, and the promise of a big catch.
