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.

More Room, Less Money: NEMO Dagger OSMO 3 Tent Review
  The wind whipped against the side of my tent, and a fine layer of sand covered everything. My sleep system, backpack, and clothes were all powdered with dust. This was our second night camping in a sandstorm, though, and I was getting used to it.   One by one, I pulled everything out of the tent to shake off the Utah...
7 Questions with Rick Steves, Europe’s Most Famous Travel Guide
  For more than four decades, Steves has guided Americans through the art, food, and culture of Europe, first with his bestselling guidebooks, then as host of his long-running PBS show, Rick Steves’ Europe. But lately, the seventy-year-old travel expert has fallen for a different kind of journey: long-distance hiking. From the Tour du Mont Blanc to the Alta Vias in...
The 6 Best Coolers of 2025
  Coolers are the gastroenterological core of every camping trip. If your cooler fails, your drinks are only lukewarm and your perishables go bad. While ice retention, exterior durability, and interior capacity are all important features to consider, we also think the devil is in the details when it comes to buying the right cooler. A massive amount of insulation won’t...
Katabatic Alsek 22 Review: Cold Sleepers Rejoice — This Sleeping Quilt Works for All
  I hit about mile 200 before I swallowed the bitter pill: I might not be cut out for this sleeping quilt thing. It was half a month into my thru-hike of the Pacific Crest Trail, and while the days crossing the sand-filled basins brutalized with heat, the nights along the high-rising desert ridges plunged to near freezing.   I also found...
‘Motorcyclists Injured, Killed Every Year’: Death Valley Warns Against Riding During Park’s Hottest Months

Climbing Everest is Easy Compared to Surviving an Abusive Parent, With Melissa Arnot Reid
  Melissa Arnot Reid’s mountaineering resume is a jaw dropping list of accomplishments; hundreds of summits of the world’s tallest, most dangerous peaks, including becoming the first American woman to summit Everest without supplemental oxygen. Melissa has an uncommon athletic prowess, but what truly fueled her mountain pursuits was a long held and long protected emotional emptiness. In a gut-wrenching new...
An Insulator for Folks on the Move: Patagonia Nano-Air Ultralight Review
  Since its original release in 2014, the Patagonia Nano-Air line has been the best breathable layer you can buy, at least in my book. I’m not a Patagonia fan boy, but after owning two of the original Nano-Air Jackets, the Nano-Air Light Pullover, and the Nano-Air pants (and testing out almost every other brand’s crack at breathable insulation layers), I...
The Best Places to Hike, Bike, and Swim in Chicago
  There’s this running joke Chicagoans like to tell: Don’t like the weather? Wait fifteen minutes. A generous interpretation is that in Chicago, there’s always a good reason to spend time outside.   Chicago is a true four-seasons town: Summers are glorious here, a place where it seems like a block party or softball tournament is always taking place. Fall foliage can...
REEB Cycles Resurrects US-Made Gravel Frame, Built to Customize
  Once, there was a time when skinny jeans and drop bars didn’t fit any mold in the gravel cycling world. So, a then-fledgling Colorado bike builder started carving out a niche.    Fast forward 12 years, and Longmont, Colo.-based REEB is bringing back a gravel build called “The Sam’s Pants.” It’s welded by hand from Italian steel tubing at Hooptie Bike...

More Power, Less Weight, Massive Price Tag: 2026 BMW M2 CS
  The 2026 BMW M2 CS might be the best BMW M-car of the modern era. The littlest current M car is suddenly the most powerful rear-drive BMW on sale today. With the same horsepower as its AWD big sibling the M4 Competition, massive brakes, a huge new rear spoiler, and nearly 100 pounds less weight. But this 2 Series M-onster...
