$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.

Lind Canvas Review: An Electric Surfboard Is Just as Thrilling as It Sounds
  Surfing is addictive. Once it clicks, you feel like you’re flying over the surface of water. The only thing is, you need a wave to do it. For me, wakesurfing doesn’t scratch the itch, and while mechanical wave pools exist, they aren’t exactly cheap or ubiquitous yet. Enter the Lind Canvas, an insanely over-engineered, high-powered electric surfboard that delivers surf-like...
Mosquitos Nearly Ruined My Eastern Sierra Backpacking Trip—But This $11 Lotion Saved the Weekend

How (Literal) Pants-Wetting Anxiety Can Clarify Life, with Sierra Schlag
