Kaitum 2
$1,185.00
Description

  Maximum usable space, outstanding comfort, and strength in a lightweight package

  Because of its two door/two vestibule configuration, its lightweight yet strong materials and its smart design, the Hilleberg Kaitum 2 provides a stunning balance of super light weight, overall comfort and high strength. Backpackers gravitate toward the Kaitum 2’s light weight and remarkable roominess, as do paddle and bicycle tourers, who also appreciate its small packed size. Hunters, winter campers, ski tourers, and climbers favor the Kaitum 2 because of its all-season strength as well as its low weight. And taller users will find the Kaitum 2’s plentiful floor space, vertical entrances, and vertical walls a roomy pleasure.

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

Simple, Comfy Headlamp That Gets the Job Done: BioLite Range Review
  Loons call through the falling dusk over an impossibly calm mirror surface of Lake One in Minnesotas Boundary Waters Canoe Area. I step away from the campfire and press a button on the top of the BioLite Range 500, the newest headlamp from a brand focused on comfortable lighting. A red glow illuminates the path to my food pack, where...
How Running Helped One Family Recover From Unimaginable Loss
  When Lawlor Coe lost his brother Hunter to suicide, one of the ways he coped was by lacing up his joggers and running. At first, he was trying to elude his grief; over time he found that the physical suffering he endured on the trail helped him find a way toward peace and, from there, joy. After sorrow and anger,...

Brilliant Elastic Lace System for Women’s Winter Boots: Stio Colter Review
  I live in Crested Butte, Colo., where winter easily reaches into three seasons. Its essential to have a pair of womens winter boots that are warm, waterproof, and easy to pull on and off. Of course, its important to find one with style, too. After testing the Stio Colter, I wish I could wear these sneaker-esque snow boots year-round.   When...
Garmin’s First Handheld GPS With Camera, Voice, and More: GPSMAP H1i Plus First Look
  Garmin handhelds have always been tough, reliable, and, honestly, a little boring. To be fair, the gadgets are tools, not toys.   But that may have just changed.   The new GPSMAP H1i Plus ($1,000) packs a built-in camera and microphone, so you can send photos and voice notes straight from the device without pulling out your phone. It certainly adds a...
Less Power, More Money, But Oh So Right: 2026 Ram 1500 HEMI Review
  Several feet away, with camera in hand, I stand on a massive patch of asphalt and watch the test driver WOT (wide-open throttle) the HEMI-equipped Ram. As his left foot still lightly rests on the brake, the rear tires start spinning furiously, roaring their way around a white cloud of tire smoke billowing from the roasting rear rubber. I capture...
No Screen, No Subscription: Polar Launches Low-Profile ‘Loop’ Fitness Tracker
  As technology grows more complex, theres increasing competition to make that tech feel less like a gadget. The smartwatch segment is a clear example of that, as screenless wearables like Whoop have become more popular.   Now, Polar aims to carve out a piece of the marketplace. Long known for its sports computers and heart rate monitors — since the 1970s—Polar...
Affordable, Fun, Fish-Ready SUP: Retrospec June Review
  I was initially skeptical of inflatable fishing paddleboards and kayaks. Like many people unfamiliar with inflatable paddleboards and kayaks, I thought it would pop the first time I stabbed it with a stick, ran across some rocks, or had a lure come flying back at warp speed and embed itself in the side.   After testing several inflatable watercraft, I can...
Fast Entry, High Performance: Jones Mercury FASE Snowboard Binding Review
  For years, snowboard bindings have remained relatively the same, with two straps to put on and take off, requiring extra time at the top of the lift compared to skiers. Companies like FLOW had tried to create a fast-entry binding with a droppable high back. But these were often heavy, awkward, and didnt have the performance of expert-level riders needed. Thats where the Jones...

It explores questions of legacy, friendship, and vision along the way to Hersons big send.   In the 2010s,...
