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.

9 Places to Get Naked Outdoors on National Nude Day
  The first time I went to a clothing-optional hot spring in Colorado, I was shocked. It was afternoon on a super-sunny spring day, and strangers sitting in the pool around me were talking about politics. While naked. I couldn’t believe how comfortable all the nude soakers seemed, or that I was one of very few opting to stay covered.   That...

  There are so many folding knives aimed at the outdoors these days that theres bound to be some overlap.

This is really happening.   For years, the Benchmade...
Mount Everest Is on AllTrails. The Reviews Are Priceless.
  1. The mountain of my dreams I have a confession: When I was a wee little teenager searching desperately for a way to validate my wee little life, I wanted to climb Mount Everest.   Shameful, I know! But I was just a kid. And this was back in the blissfully ignorant early 2000s, less than a decade removed from John...

The Best Knee Pads for Mountain Biking
  There are endless choices when it comes to mountain bike knee protection. We tested ten options while running hot laps on local trails, barreling down bike parks, and grinding out all-day alpine adventures.

Confirmed: Sub-$25,000 Jeep Renegade EV Coming in 2027
  EV sales growth has slowed sharply in recent months, and pricing is a critical concern for many potential buyers — the typical EV costing nearly $57,000 in May, according to Kelley Blue Book.    The new Jeep Wagoneer S, the off-road brand’s first all-electric model in North America, certainly doesn’t fall into the “affordable” category, starting at $72,000 for the Launch...
Trailside Charging Stations Are the Future: Polaris Partnership Builds Network to Power Off-Road Adventures
  Our caravan of five Polaris Ranger side-by-sides had to cross a bridge over a creek where there was a lone man fishing, enjoying the isolation and peace of the backcountry in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I felt horrible, as I had done for decades when trying to coexist with other outdoor enthusiasts while enjoying off-road motorsports.   But this encounter...
How to Choose a Hiking Hat That Fits Your Personality
  Apologies to anyone who encountered me on the Pacific Crest Trail in July 2021, rabidly racing in circles through the wondrous Marble Valley in the northernmost reaches of California. Indeed, had you been peering down from Marble Rim, which juts from the brilliant forest like some rough-hewn countertop slab, and watched me sprint around the meadow below, you would have...

Blown Away: Craft Women’s ADV Essence Wind Running Tights Review
  Ive lived in the third coldest valley in the lower 48 for more than 10 years. While searching for the best womens winter running tights, I cant say Ive gotten used to that piece of mountain life: -30 is still bone-chilling. The snow and chilly wind stick around through spring, well into May. True summer — without longstanding freezing temps...
