Kaitum 3 GT
Hilleberg
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.

Opinel Launches ‘National Parks Collection’ Knives to Support Leave No Trace
  A lot of utility knives are works of art in and of themselves. But when you combine an already beautiful blade with a handle thats been imbued with an artists touch, it takes the craftsmanship to another level.   Opinels limited-edition National Parks collection knives are a perfect example. The folding knife brand launched this collection on June 12, 2025, to...
‘Alone’ Was Forever Changed by a Moose Hunt in the Canadian Backcountry
  The twang of a recurve bow echoes from the television speakers, and on screen, a man wearing camouflage ducks behind a clump of fir trees.   Holy cow, I nailed it, a voice whispers. My heart is pumping so fast right now.   The scene marks the turning point of season 6 of the survival reality show Alone, and first aired on June...
After 10 Years Hiking Europe, These Are My 10 Favorite Treks
  For years, I’ve snubbed Europe’s mountains as soon as the ski season ended. For me, the Alps were long synonymous with winter: hut-to-hut ski tours in the Italian Dolomites, shots of schnapps at après in Austria, and cozy cabins and hearty meals of fondue and raclette in Switzerland.   Around a decade ago, a work assignment took me to the Savoie...
Plaid That Performs: Pladra Workhorse Wool Flannel Review
  This spring, I brought a stack of flannels to wear around the chalet on a ski trip to the Alps. We were visiting a lodge on the French-Italian border for some après-heavy backcountry skiing: Plaid shirts, warm fires, morning coffee in tiny cups — that type of stuff. The days were crisp, and the mountains were calling.   Ive never worn...
Another Tourist in Yellowstone Got Too Close to a Bison. It Gored Him.
  Last summer, Outside sent writer Drew Magary to Yellowstone National Park, not to observe the wildlife, but instead to gawk at the tourists. Amid all the chaos of high season at one of the United States’ most heavily-trafficked national parks, Magary discovered, among other things, that “everyone who comes to Yellowstone is horny for bison.”   But unlike other big, dangerous...
Video: Is Mount Everest Base Camp Too Cushy?
  In his latest video dispatch, Ben Ayers explains what day-to-day life is like at Mount Everest Base Camp during the spring climbing season. There are a plethora of stories out there about the extravagant infrastructure at the base of the worlds highest peak, such as fancy espresso machines, massages, and five-star cuisine. But is life in Base Camp too cushy?...
Cyberpunk Two-Wheel Transporter: Meet the Infinite Machine Olto
  If you slowly whittled down a Tesla Cybertruck into an e-bike, I imagine it would look something like this. Of course, I doubt the brand behind this innovative take on an electric bicycle would appreciate the comparison, given the political climate.   Regardless, the Olto looks different for a reason: Its not quite like any e-bike/e-moped that has come before. Created...
Classic Trail Reopens in Zion National Park After 2-Year Closure
  The Emerald Pools, a series of three pristine cascading bodies of water, is one of the most scenic spots in all of Zion National Park.   For the last 2 years, the bridge that carries hikers over the Virgin River has been closed due to an unstable foundation. That forced visitors to make a longer hike with a series of detours....
Keith Haring Running Shoes, Ski Patrol Fashion, Land Cruiser Clothes, and More Emerging Gear
  Weve got a respectable mix of cool stuff for you this week, from hardy outdoor gear and techy gadgets to colorful collaborations meant to stand out from the crowd.   There are a few more collaborations than usual this week, but how can we leave out stylish, Keith Haring-inspired running shoes, understated threads from Toyota, or a fashionable pairing of Osprey...
Nike and Faith Kipyegon Plan to Crack the Four-Minute Mile This Month. Here’s How.
  Earlier this week, I found myself dissecting an embargoed briefing video frame by frame, like a JFK obsessive trying to squeeze meaning from the Zapruder film. I’d just had an interview with three top scientists from Nike’s Breaking4 team, the group tasked with coordinating Faith Kipyegon’s attempt to run the first women’s sub-four-minute mile later this month. I got some...
Get the Shot: Gear Hacks From 8 Outdoor Adventure Photographers
  Adventure photography takes a certain level of skill and a lot of know-how. Like any type of photography, the process is all about telling a story, forcing the photographer to be in the right place at the right time — or often ahead of the action. In order to get to the heart of the narrative, the photographer occasionally has...
The 6 Best Joggers for Men, Tested in the Real World and In Our Gear Lab
  The everyday jogger isn’t as robust as soft shell pants you’d climb a mountain in, nor are they lifesaving items like avalanche airbags or helmets that traditionally get tested more rigorously. But during my decade of working as Outside’s Gear Guy, the tests I’ve enjoyed the most are when weve gone deep on everyday pieces of gear like the humble...
