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.

This Big, Bizarre-Looking Duck Is Making Down Gear Warmer, Longer-Lasting, and More Affordable
  Despite every manner of challenger — from biodegradable synthetics, to alpaca fleece, Seawool made from crushed oyster shells, and even salvaged bison fiber — the undisputed king of warm, insulated gear remains goose down.   An analysis by the Global Trends Observatory forecast that the market value of down, which stood at $3.5 billion in 2023, will hit $5.2 billion by 2032. Its...

First Look: HOKA Mafate 5
  Running terrain of the rocky-rooty-rutty variety is fun and rewarding, but no easy task. Add stream crossings, scree fields, and occasional snow patches, and it’s no surprise wild trails demand focus and athleticism at any pace, even the most leisurely. If you up the stakes by racing, then every foot strike carries even more weight.   That heightened challenge is why...
Epic Overland Cross-Continent Adventure in a Subaru Crosstrek
  A coast-to-coast road trip is a staple of American culture and is doable in a few days if you stick to major highways. However, a route exists offering a slower, off-road-centric way across the country: the TransAmerica Trail (TAT).   TAT prioritizes adventure over rapidity, affording an Atlantic Ocean to Pacific Ocean route with thousands of miles of dirt and gravel,...
First Look: Insta360’s X5 Is the Best Camera for Travel and Outdoor Adventure
  When 360-degree video first debuted, it wasn’t much more than a neat party trick. But Insta360’s latest flagship camera, the X5, has leveled up the game so much that it now isn’t just the best 360 camera out there—it’s one of the best adventure travel cameras available, period.   That’s because the X5 is a serious storytelling tool, perfect for travelers...

Leatherman Recall: Multi-Tool Blade Defect Poses ‘Laceration Hazard’
  Last week, Leatherman issued a voluntary recall for its Charge Plus and Charge Plus TTi multi-tools over a manufacturing defect that prevented some units blades from closing completely. Leatherman notes this poses a laceration risk to users, although no reports of injuries have been received.   The Consumer Product Safety Commission, which is assisting Leatherman in the recall, lists the number...
This Pack Made Packrafting the Arctic Possible: Seek Outside Unaweep 6300 Review
  Six hundred fifty pounds sure sounds like a lot of weight. Until you’re trying desperately to squeeze three fellers, 8 days of supplies, packraft kits, and bear protection into the back of a Cessna 185 on floats. Then it’s just a cruel number.   The ancient scale on the porch of Brooks Range Aviation in Bettles, Alaska, weighed our fate: 630...
