$1,380.00
Description

  Highly versatile all-season tent; light, strong, and roomy

  The Hilleberg Kaitum 4 is a highly versatile all-season tent. Providing a superb balance of remarkably light weight, comfort, and high strength, it is an excellent choice for those who prefer the flexibility of a two entrance, two vestibule design, but don’t necessarily require the extra strength of the Black Label Keron models. The standard sized vestibules can be fully rolled away for tre­mendous venting, and its front section can also be rolled back to create a very protected “covered porch.”

  Backpackers, paddle tourers and cyclists will appreciate the Kaitum’s roominess, light weight, and small packed size. Hunters, winter campers, ski tourers, and climbers will favor its all-season strength and impressive space to weight ratio, and taller users of all types will find the Kaitum models a roomy pleasure. This four-person version of the Kaitum is perfect for backpacking families, couples who camp with their dogs, or anyone looking for a roomy but remarkably lightweight 4-person tent.

  A note on colors: Fabric dyes have natural variations, so the actual tent color may look slightly different from what is pictured here.

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...

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...
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...
