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.

Durston Customers Turn Brand Loyalty Into Cult-Like Devotion
  Author’s note: I do not mean to minimize the negative effects that actual cults have had on many people. Please take the following with the levity with which it was penned.   “I don’t know what you mean by “cult,” just because I own 3 Durston tents and am saving for another …”   — Rob Rice, posted on the Durston Gearheads...
Everest’s Hornbein Couloir Is the Greatest Line Never Skied
  Within the tight knit community of ski mountaineers, a handful of descents stand alone in terms of sheer difficulty. In 1980, Frenchman Jean-Marc Boivin became the first person to ski down the Matterhorns treacherous east face. In 1995, Canadians Ptor Spriceniek and Troy Jungen pulled a coup on the north face of British Columbias 12,972-foot Mount Robson. And in 2012, Swedens Andreas...

Cool, Capable, Affordable: 2024 Triumph Scrambler 400 X Review
  The term “scrambler” doesn’t mean much these days. Unlike the scramblers of old, which were street bikes converted for off-road use, today’s scramblers are typically just restyled versions of existing models with little to no meaningful improvements made for off-road riding.   Pretty much every major manufacturer has done this in one form or another, from BMW’s RnineT Scrambler to Honda’s...
Nick Fowler Pushed His Body to the Brink to Set the Arizona Trail Speed Record
  A few days after hiker Nick Fowler completed the Arizona Trail—the 800-mile trek across deserts, mountains, and yes even the Grand Canyon—he had a pedicure.   The nail technician took a pumice stone to Fowlers blisters and calluses, and she dug into exposed nail beds. She rubbed. She massaged. But even after the tender love and care, Fowlers feet still throbbed....

  Utahs sun was high in the cloudless blue sky as we hiked out of Devils Kitchen in Canyonlands National Park and around Elephant Canyon. The November temperature was perfect as cool air descended from the snow-capped La Sal Mountains. As we marched, saddled with our overnight packs, I absorbed the gorgeous, otherworldly scenery in crisp detail despite the sun and...
