Kaitum 3

$1,290.00

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 3 provides a stunning balance of super light weight, overall comfort and high strength. Backpackers gravitate toward the Kaitum 3’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 3 because of its all-season strength as well as its low weight. And taller users will find the Kaitum’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.

Footprint sold separately.

Dartmoor Bouldering - Gems in a Granite Setting Destination Guide

Grandly named 'Devonia's Alps' by celebrated author William Crossing, Dartmoor is formed by the largest mass of granite in Britain, is very peaty and has a lot of bogs. Of more interest for us, however, is that over the last 30 years it has matured from being a relative backwater frequented mostly by tough-skinned locals into an outstanding bouldering destination,...

Anna Wells on the Winter Munro Round

On 13th March, Inverness based climber Anna Wells became the fourth person (and first woman) to complete a Munro round in winter, equalling the previous record of 83 days set by mountain guide and accomplished mountaineer, Martin Moran. Anna climbed all 282 Scottish 3000-foot peaks in a single astronomical winter season through a flexible approach that played to her strengths....

Nevada Offers Travelers $5,000 to Hike the Pacific Crest Trail

　　When Jeff Potter arrived in Carson City, Nevada near the end of the ’90s, he noted an absence: His new home was ringed by low-slung mountains at the eastern edge of the towering Sierra Nevada and its sweeping Lake Tahoe, but there was no real way to get to them without a car. 　　A California native drawn toward Tahoe for...

Classic Winter - East Ridge of Beinn a' Chaorainn

There's a lot to be said for winter climbing - we wouldn't put ourselves through it for nothing. Yet it does seem a perverse, self-punishing sort of activity. I often wonder about the way the axe-wielding brigade so willingly seek out the coldest, shadiest crannies to suffer in. Yes of course, that's where the conditions are. But how often have...

Inside the Battle Over School Fitness Testing

　　Last spring, among the usual elementary school reminders about theme weeks and illicit peanut butter snacks (WE ARE A NUT FREE CAMPUS!!) an email popped up that gave me pause. My kindergartner would be weighed in school, it said, and I could click on a link to opt her out. 　　It gave me the ick. I’d paid attention to young women...

Is the Rise in California Ski Accidents Linked to Weed Gummies and GoPros?

　　According to a report by the Los Angeles Times and subsequent news sources, California ski accidents are up nearly 50 percent over the last two years, statistics that news reports have attributed to a rise in GoPro use, selfie stops, and “THC-laced gummies.” That’s quite the cocktail, and one interviewee mentioned that chairlifts often “smell like skunks when they should...

Bridging Two Worlds: The Unlikely Connection Between Horses and Climbing

These days articles are often oriented around click bait, with publishers and media outlets frequently focussing on 'top five' this and 'top ten' that. As a result of this we thought we'd buck the trend and do something completely different, by taking a theme that has absolute no relevance to anyone and rolling with it. Unfortunately one issue with this...

The Six Classic North Faces Of The Alps Article

Luke Davies shares tips and tactics for climbing the six classic north faces of the European Alpswith some history to boot... In the 1930s, Alpinism had already been around for over a century and the list of unclimbed faces in the Alps was becoming shorter and shorter. Top Alpinists of the time from Austria and Germany such as Heckmair and...

The Best of Peak Limestone Sport Climbing (6a – 7a) Destination Guide

It has been said that the Peak District is a difficult place to start sport climbing. The UK as a whole is not endowed with a huge number of high-quality, easy sport routes and hearing the words 'Peak limestone' certainly doesn't bring to mind climbing on tufa-ridden orange rock in the sun. Nonetheless, there's enough to go at for some...

Don’t Project Your Mountain Town Envy Onto Your Kids

　　“The easiest way to turn your kids into geniuses by the time they’re seven is to front load huge amounts of experience, including dangerous experience.” This is the advice of the late John Taylor Gatto, the writer and educator who is perhaps best known for his passionate polemics against compulsory schooling. For Gatto, one of the ominous signs of “well-schooled...

Top 10 Borrowdale Routes at VS and Under Article

Borrowdale is the perfect place to develop your trad climbing skills. It's a valley with a long and storied climbing history where many have honed their practice over the years.
