$1,590.00
Description

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

  The Hilleberg Kaitum 4 GT 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. For those wanting lots of storage space, the Kaitum GT model’s extended vestibule offers that with very little weight pen­alty. This extended vestibule has an entrance on each side for more entry/exit and venting options. 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.

Ewok Bunting? Han Solo Trench Coat? Columbia’s Latest ‘Star Wars’ Drop Is Out of This World
  The nostalgia is strong with this one.

Columbia has been putting out limited-edition Star Wars capsules for several years. It would be easy for the brand to just slap some...

  While the world is changing at an incredibly fast pace, learning from those who traveled the road less traveled before us is still a great place to start when considering overland travel.

Mobile Toolbox for Daily Life: Victorinox Swiss Army Companion Review
  One of my favorite shows when I was growing up was MacGyver. Even as a teenager busy with school, work, and chasing girls, I made time for that show every week. Over the course of seven seasons, he used several different Swiss Army knife models, including the Spartan and the Tinker.   I’d already had a Swiss Army knife for a...

Crashing Klaus Obermeyer’s 106th Birthday: Meeting the Man Behind the Legendary Brand
  Id never been to a 106th birthday party before. So I was not going to miss Klaus Obermeyers — even if that meant crashing it. After all, the man is a legend in the American ski industry. He was responsible for innovating technologies like dual-pane goggle lenses, high-altitude sunscreen, and down parkas. He was one of Aspens first ski instructors....

Carson Storch Isn’t Afraid to Eat Dirt — Or Move It. Meet the Blue-Collar Daredevil of Big Mountain Biking
  Carson Storch labeled himself a blue-collar athlete of the axle sports world. No wonder DECKED, the makers of workman-inspired truck bed drawer systems, liked him enough to sponsor him.   “I do dumb stuff on my bike and get paid to do it,” Storch shrugs nonchalantly.   This “dumb stuff” includes jumping out of perfectly good helicopters for cameras and ending up...
Columbia Trolls Flat-Earthers: Take a Photo and ‘Win’ the Whole Company
  Its hard to take flat-Earthers seriously — but maybe we should at least acknowledge them. In a hilarious new marketing stunt, the CEO of Columbia pokes fun at those who believe the Earth is not round, but is, in fact, a flat construction with edges.   Tim Boyle actually makes a proposition for those who believe in this strange view of...
State Bicycle Co. Titanium All-Road Review: Anti-Glamour Gravel Champion
  Since launching in 2009, State Bicycle Co. has carved out a reputation for delivering functionality without fluff. Launched this year, the Titanium All-Road certainly fits that bill — quiet and unremarkable, other than the iridescence of its State logos.   Still fun as hell, though.   Bombing the first descent. Air roaring past my ears. Rocks pinging off the downtube at 30+...
