Kaitum 3 GT

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.

This Book Is the Cure for Climate Anxiety
  I’ve read more books on climate action than I can count. So I don’t say this lightly: I’m obsessed with the one I just finished, What If We Get It Right? Visions of Climate Futures by Ayana Elizabeth Johnson.   In it, Johnson, a marine biologist and co-founder of the nonprofit think-tank Urban Ocean Lab, conducts interviews with 20 experts in everything...
Safer on the Slopes: Ski Gear Upgrades for 2025
  Gravity, speed, ice, and snow — the ingredients of a freestyle ski session are a recipe for adrenaline and possible disaster. Last season, my son learned the hard way by breaking a wrist on one of his first days out.   At Christmas, he had a cast on his arm, and he was sidelined as his friends grabbed the rope tow...
Not Somber, Not Stoke: ‘Blue Hour’ Tracks the Beauty of In-Betweens
  Most ski films aim for energy —lots of energy. From hucking of cliffs to splashing pristine pow, the legacy of these short edits is to amp up viewers to shred their own gnar. Occasionally, though, a ski edit might follow their subject through tragedy, sadness, or a painful event.   But rare is the film that lies somewhere in the middle....
Why I Always Wear Compression Socks on Long Flights
  If sitting is the new smoking, then flying in economy must be the equivalent of a pack a day.   Remaining seated for extended periods, whether you’re working at a desk or road-tripping hundreds of miles, causes blood to pool in your legs. Sitting on a plane exacerbates this, because air-pressure changes in the cabin lowers the oxygenation of your blood,...
Seven Snow-Free Winter Hikes in the Seattle Area

Thanks to the city’s proximity to multiple national and state parks, hikers don’t need to venture far to enjoy stunning natural landscapes.   To the west, discover coastal ecosystems and lush rainforests on...
Never Miss a Day to Winter Weather with These Men’s Running Pants and Tights
  Even when the roads are iced over, the trails are covered in snow, and the wind is ripping, runners still ask themselves the question, “Can I get away with shorts today?” But there’s no need to sprint through your first mile in survival mode and finish your run with wind-burned thighs and a frozen grimace. The free-flowing, breathable materials, subtle...
‘Endurance Festival’ Funnels Big Donation to Small Town Left Out of Helene Relief Funds
  Even if youve been reading the news about Hurricane Helenes massive destruction in North Carolina, you probably havent heard of Old Fort. This small town of about 800 people sits just a half-hour drive east of Asheville, which received national news coverage after the tropical storm ripped through the area in September.   Old Fort, however, was excluded from the relief...
Inside REI’s ‘Living Archive’ Vintage Gear Museum
  John Junky knew the beat-up REI Half Dome tent belonged in a museum as soon as it hit the counter of the Fairbanks, Alaska, store. The customer who brought it in told him hed slept over a thousand nights in it. But finally, it started to delaminate, and he was ready for a change.   So hed come to cash in...

Jail, Fine, Ban: Judge Levies Whopping Penalty to Ohio Poacher
  In a win for wildlife conservation and legal hunting, Christopher J. “CJ” Alexander, 28, of Clinton County, Ohio, has been sentenced to 90 days in jail and fined over $43,000 for his role in a high-profile poaching operation. The sweeping judgment surpasses common poaching penalties, which vary by state but can be as little as $300.   Alexander was convicted on...
Tactical but Practical EDC (Where Legal): DailyCarryCo TiSlide Gravity Knife
  Like a butterfly-style knife, a gravity knife only requires a couple of simple flicks of your wrist to open and close. This sort of efficiency has come under scrutiny, and owning and operating a knife like this could land you in legal hot water.   That said, they’re also a ton of fun to use. Enter DailyCarryCo: a low-key, blade-centric brand...
Newly Electric, But Not Quite Electrifying: 2025 Dodge Charger Daytona Review
  Dodge knew all along that converting the Charger to an EV might tick off muscle car fans. After all, the concept of a muscle car with electric motors seems counterintuitive, especially with a fake exhaust soundtrack added into the mix. But early design previews looked solid, and Dodge’s typically hilarious marketing played up the controversy well.   In a surprising decision,...
