Keron 4 GT

$1,660.00

Description

　　Maximum strength and living space; 4-season

　　When Hilleberg first introduced the Keron, it quickly became the standard tent for polar expeditions because of its superb durability and excellent wind stability, its roomy interior, and its simplicity. These same traits have made the tent a favorite of outdoor enthusiasts of every kind, including professionals such as mountain guides, forest rangers, search and rescue teams, and military special operations units.

　　At the same time, the Keron 4 GT is also an excellent choice for families, hikers and “regular” users – anyone wanting a tent that is exceptionally sturdy yet relatively light in weight, that will work for any situation, and that will handle many years of use. Indeed, the Keron 4 GT is an admirable choice for any backcountry adventure, from demanding, extended winter expeditions, to long or short rambles in mountains and/or forests, to casual coastal jaunts, to relaxed overnight camping outings in your local recreation area.

　　The Keron 4 GT is also a fine choice for dog mushers and cycle tourers because its extra large vestibule allows plenty of storage space for sled or bike equipment. In fact, you can park two bicycles in its vestibule!

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

Footprint sold separately.

Samaya ULTRA35 Review: Minimalist Dyneema Pack Worth Maximalist Price

　　The Samaya ULTRA35 is an ultralight minimalist alpine pack with the added bling of Dyneema. On paper, it checks all the boxes for a high-performance alpinist.

11 Ounces, 1,300 Gallons: LifeSaver Wayfarer Packable Water Purifier Review

　　We were about 20 miles up Gypsum Creek, pedaling deeper into White River National Forest aboard a pair of burly UBCO bikes loaded down with an obscene amount of camping gear.
