$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.

Watch Out Gymkhana — The Chinese Are Coming for You With ‘Up Drift’
  The Hoonigan Gymkhana formula is often imitated, but rarely so well. Chinese car company HYPTEC, owned by the GAC Group, is showing off its latest supercar, the HYPTEC SSR, in an extreme drift video called Up Drift.   Just as in the Gymkhana video series, a specific location and vehicle are featured in the video. For Up Drift, the location is...
Ski Map Mitts, Kardashian Kits, Cozy Cotopaxi Fits, and More Emerging Gear
  Its that time of year again: When strange ski collaborations get dropped, like the latest The North Face collaboration with chic Kim Kardashian brand SKIMS or a grungy Arcteryx ski capsule designed alongside Atomic Skis. Did we mention a new brand making ski mitten covers with prints of ski resort maps? Yeah, thats in here, too.   Thats not all, though....
Dometic Recon Cooler Review: Smart Design With Real-World Usability
  It started with the yellow. The Dometic Recon cooler is hard to miss: bright, bold, and easy to spot in the back of a Jeep or tucked among camping gear. When I pulled the 41L version into rotation for testing around Colorado’s Roaring Fork Valley, I was curious whether this injection-molded cooler could deliver more than just good looks.   Of...

Premium Carbon Skis for Backcountry Strike Missions: Volkl ’25/26 V-Werks Rise 99 Review
  Boris Langenstein is the type of skier who pioneers lines on 8,000m peaks. His June descent of Nanga Parbat’s Rupal Face is a perfect example of the kinds of objectives this ski mountaineering folk hero pursues. His old-school alpinist demeanor contrasts with his fast-and-loose skiing style. I couldn’t help feeling a little starstruck chasing him around a powder-plastered Chamonix for...
BOTE Kula 5 Magnepod Review: The Cooler That’s Cooler Than You’d Expect
  The BOTE Kula 5 Magnepod isn’t your typical hard cooler. It’s a 5-gallon, round rotomolded tank that doubles as a camp seat, SUP companion, and day-trip sidekick. Built by a paddleboard brand known for its versatility, the Kula 5 feels like it was designed with a specific user in mind: folks who move between the water, the trail, and the...
SITKA MicroDown Jacket Cuts Weight, Not Warmth
  Ounces equal pounds, and pounds equal pain: A phrase that rings true with most backcountry hunters. In other words, we want our gear to be as lightweight and compressible as possible without giving up too much functionality or comfort.   The folks at SITKA Gear are very familiar with living out of a backpack, and in light of the beginning phrase,...
Watch ‘Inaccessible’ Trailer: Skier, Hunter Griffin Post Explores How Unreachable Public Land Affects Everyone
  In the U.S., over 16 million acres of public land are inaccessible because theyre locked up behind private parcels. This is an issue that affects hunters and anglers nationwide every year, and which GearJunkie has covered extensively.   But just because hunters and anglers run into problems with inaccessible public land more often doesnt mean that it only affects them. Hikers,...
Skiers and Snowboarders in Italy Are Now Required by Law to Wear Helmets
  This article originally appeared on The Inertia.   It would be tough to find a ski resort on the planet where people without helmets outnumber those wearing them.It’s one of the single largest shifts in safety adopted by everyday skiers and snowboarders in the last 30 years. It’s not just a safety trend that the masses got on board with.   However,...
BOA Killer? ‘Zip’ Laces Quietly Impress at 2025 ‘Running Event’
  At first glance, I wasnt sure I was looking at the future of footwear. I stood on the edge of a cramped booth at the farthest edge of The Running Event in San Antonio. While dominated by running shoe reveals for the upcoming year, the show also housed a smattering of running-adjacent apparel, accessories, and —in the case of the...
Kei Cars Coming? Trump Wants ‘Very Small,’ ‘Really Cute’ Cars to Be Sold in the US
  On Dec. 3, the Trump administration held a press conference announcing a shift in fuel economy regulations. However, if you were paying attention, Trump also basically said he’d like to see kei cars offered in the U.S. While he didn’t specifically call out the term “kei” (pronounced “kay”), he was clearly referring to them.      Subaru Sambar kei truck; (photo/Andy...
