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.

Is Your Period Messing With Your Training? Here’s What the Experts Say
  If youve ever had a period, its natural to assume it affects your performance as an athlete: How could cramping, bloating, nausea, and exhaustion not influence how fast you run or bike?   If, however, you try to find information about this topic, it might as well be the wild west. Only very recently did scientific research begin to treat the...
Industrial-Strength EDC: Leatherman Glider Pocket Knife Review
  Heavy. Tough. Rugged. Those arent terms Id often use to describe an everyday carry pocket knife.   But in the case of the Leatherman Glider, they feel entirely appropriate. The Glider, while shaped for common EDC tasks, simply feels industrial. It seems built in another era of heavy-duty manufacturing, with everything from deeply engraved USA letters to steel handles oozing machine...
This Fall Could Bring the Best Northern Lights in Decades. Here’s How to See Them.
  If you’ve been waiting to book a Northern Lights trip, it’s time to make it happen. This autumn is expected to kick off one of the strongest aurora seasons in decades—think last year’s low-latitude displays, and potentially even better.   That’s because the sun has reached its roughly 11-year peak of activity, known as solar maximum. The bright star causes auroras...

A Discreet, Functional Photography Pack: Brevitē The Jumper Review
  Not too many years ago, there was a distinct shortage of options for carrying photography equipment. Shoulder bags dominated the offerings, despite the fact that — in my experience —they simply dont work that well for most photographers. While I might love my Domke, its simply not the best choice for most of the situations I find myself in as...
Less Power, More Money, But Oh So Right: 2026 Ram 1500 HEMI Review
  Several feet away, with camera in hand, I stand on a massive patch of asphalt and watch the test driver WOT (wide-open throttle) the HEMI-equipped Ram. As his left foot still lightly rests on the brake, the rear tires start spinning furiously, roaring their way around a white cloud of tire smoke billowing from the roasting rear rubber. I capture...

Sprinting Across the Pyrenees: Unsupported, Alone, TNF Athlete Documents Her GR11 Run
  At the age of 45, elite ultrarunner Fernanda Maciel decided to run Spains infamous GR11 trail —alone and unsupported. The route is more than 500 miles, and covers some of the most challenging terrain in the Pyrenees mountains. And Maciel filmed herself the entire way, documenting her journey and her struggles.   In the new short film from The North Face,...
Straight Track, Speedy Glide: Red Paddle Co. Sport MSL 800 Inflatable Standup Paddleboard Review
  The western red cedar and hemlock forest was peacefully quiet, almost eerie. Propelling our standup paddleboards smoothly through the undisturbed water, my partner and I reached a narrow inlet lined with vibrant green bur-reed and lily pads.   It looks like we can get through! I exclaimed. Shallow and crystal clear, we could see a rainbow of rocks atop the lake...
In Separate Events, Two U.S. Hikers Fall to Their Deaths
  Two hikers fell to their deaths in separate events at different popular wilderness areas in late August. The tragedies prompted rescuers to reiterate the importance of practicing safety on both technical and non-technical hiking trails.   After motor vehicle deaths and drownings, falls—usually while hiking—are the leading cause of accidental death in U.S. National Parks. Incidents like these highlight the importance...
