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.

New Survey Reveals Americans’ Feelings About Hunting, Shooting Sports
  A 2025 report from the Council to Advance Hunting and the Shooting Sports (CAHSS) confirms what many in the outdoor world already suspect. Most Americans support hunting and shooting sports.   The survey shows that support, however, depends on how, why, and what is being hunted or shot.   Key Findings at a Glance   73% of Americans support legal hunting 74% support...
Same Impact, Different Trigger: Evolution Shadow Thumb Release Review
  When I was coming up as a new bowhunter, the standard release everyone was given was an index-style release aid. It was the easiest transition from gun hunting to bowhunting. Fast forward to the present day, and I’d argue that the standard is slowly moving toward handheld releases.   More specifically, a thumb release. They offer a natural, open-handed feel at...
Pocket Knife Upstart Aims to Solve One Tricky EDC Problem
  As a knife collector and nerd, I own somewhere around 100 pocket knives. Yeah, its a bit of a problem. But that also means there arent many designs I havent personally seen before. Well, color me surprised, because a relatively unknown brand just hit me with a totally new concept.   Meet GhostClip, a clever design by Miami-based upstart PEAK SPEC....
Sky-High Ceiling, Down-to-Earth Comfort: NEMO Aurora Highrise 4 Tent Review
  It’s embarrassing how many tents I have tucked away in our garage. So much so, I’m pretty sure I got an eye roll from my partner when the NEMO Aurora Highrise 4 showed up. In my defense, it’s hard to purge our stash of tents, with some feeling like part of the family, like my parents’ old center-pole Kelty, and...
Mystery on Isle Royale: Murder-Suicide Suspected After Bodies Found in National Park
  The two 911 calls were made separately, but both reported the same thing: Two bodies were at a remote campsite in Michigans Isle Royale National Park. Around 4 p.m. on June 8, two National Park Service (NPS) rangers responded to the calls, hiking 11 miles overnight to the remote location. When they found the scene, an investigation was opened, the...
Retro-Chic Ski Goggles for Spring Laps: Vallon Freebirds Review
  It was a scorcher in Vail’s back bowls. Without a cloud, the snow softened to perfect corn. I enjoyed uninhibited turns for thousands of vertical feet. While those conditions are my favorite, the blasting sun and snow reflection demand solid eye protection. Thankfully, I was testing the Vallon Freebirds ski goggles — alongside a heavy layer of sunscreen.   The lens...
The Pants That Changed My Fishing Wardrobe: Magellan Outdoors Men’s Pro Angler Joggers Review
  If you had told me a year ago that my favorite pair of pants would be joggers, I would have laughed in your face. I would have found it even more ridiculous if you told me that I would be wearing them while fishing. Joggers bring to mind lazy Saturday mornings, grabbing coffee in Suburbia. Not outdoor pursuits.   However, my...
National Geographic Photographer, Two Other Climbers Die in Peru
  With an elevation of nearly 20,000 feet and treacherous routes to the summit, Mt. Artesonraju in the Peruvian Andes rarely sees ascents. The tragic deaths this month of an experienced climbing party show why it remains such a dangerous mountain.   Several weeks after their initial disappearance, three climbers — including National Geographic photographer Edson Vandeira — were found dead on...
