Kaitum 3 GT

Kaitum 3 GT
$1,480.00
Description

  Remarkable two door/two vestibule tent with maximum usable space

  Because of its two entrance/two vestibule configuration, its lightweight yet strong materials and its construction, the Hilleberg Kaitum 3 GT provides a stunning balance of super light weight, overall comfort and high strength. Backpackers gravitate toward the Kaitum 3 GT’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 GT because of its all-season strength as well as its low weight. And taller users will find the Kaitum 3 GT’s plentiful floor space, vertical entrances, and vertical walls a roomy pleasure.

  These users opt for the Kaitum 3 GT over the Kaitum 3 when their trips demand the increased space and flexibility the extended GT vestibule affords: with very little weight penalty, the larger vestibule offers considerably more space for both gear storage/sorting and food preparation. The extended GT vestibule also has two entrances, one on the side and one up front, on the opposite side, offering both more entry/exit options. And by rolling back the front section of the extended vestibule, you create a full tent-width “covered porch” deep enough to keep all but the worst weather away from the inner tent door.

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

Ultralight Pack Transforms Into External-Frame Heavy Hauler: Seek Outside Silverton 2300 Review

Hard Wear, No Tear: Zamberlan 1996 Vioz Lux Hiking Boot Review
  The mud, creek crossings, and patches of snow were unavoidable as we squished along the trail using our poles for balance. Our A-framed skis stuck up amid the surrounding willow bushes. Ahead, we could see our snow-covered objective, still miles away.   I glanced down at my mud-caked Zamberlan 1996 Vioz Lux Hiking Boots — an upgrade to the original launched in...
