$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.

Ice Climbing in Skirts? For These Bolivian Women, It’s Power.
  In a sport of many shoulds and should nots, rules and taboos, the climbing Cholitas of Bolivia could care less what you think. The reason may lie in the word “cholita” itself. It’s originally a derogatory term stemming from the Spanish slur “cholo,” meaning mixed race or Indigenous with defamatory canine undertones. But the Indigenous Aymara women of Bolivia have...

Folding Chef Knife for the Backcountry Kitchen: Messermeister Adventure Chef Knife Review
  Dehydrated camp meals are light and easy calories, but they’re far from gourmet. If you’re a dedicated home cook with a refined palate, the taste of convenience can be hard to stomach.   Thankfully, there are a lot of camp kitchen products for backcountry chefs that make essential equipment lighter and more compact than their at-home counterparts.   Most people focus on...

Three Things Making Summer Heat Bearable
  It’s mid-July and stupid hot where I live in Boulder, Colorado (and in virtually every other part of the country). While I’d love to spend all day every day by a beach or in the water wearing a bikini—like these I tested over the past six weeks—there’s reality. Aside from societal norms asking me not to wear a bikini to...
Getting Outside of the Hollywood Star Machine, with Tony Cavalero
  Famous Hollywood actors aren’t outdoorsy, right? They’re too busy being…well, famous to enjoy the outdoors and certainly too fancy to listen to a podcast about the surprising impacts of a life outside, aren’t they?
