Keron 3
$1,290.00
Description

  Super-strong tunnel tent for hard use; 4-season

  When Hilleberg first introduced the Keron, it quickly became the standard tent for polar expeditions because of its superb durability and excellent wind stability, its roomy interior, and its simplicity. These same traits have made the tent a favorite of outdoor enthusiasts of every kind, including professionals such as mountain guides, forest rangers, search and rescue teams, and military special operations units.

  At the same time, the Keron 3 is also an excellent choice for families, hikers and “regular” users – anyone wanting a tent that is exceptionally sturdy yet relatively light in weight, that will work for any situation, and that will handle many years of use. Indeed, the Keron 3 is an admirable choice for any backcountry adventure, from demanding, extended winter expeditions, to long or short rambles in mountains and/or forests, to casual coastal jaunts, to relaxed overnight camping outings in your local recreation area.

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

How to Be Reborn as a Tree
  When I was 16 years old, my father’s mother, whom we called Meemaw, gave up the ghost.
