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.

Emergency Medical Device Chip Info Without Cell Service, Batteries, or Subscription
  Skiers, cyclists, climbers, and backpackers often carry satellite communication devices. But those useful emergency devices are still only one piece of the puzzle when it comes to staying safe in the backcountry. If you send out an SOS message and first responders reach you, theyll need to know your medical history, allergies, and prescriptions.   Thats where the new KOPILOT.ID ($40)...

2026 Jeep Compass Trailhawk Is Cheaper, If You Want It Loaded
  Jeep has just slashed the price of the Compass Trailhawk — for some buyers, anyway. If you were planning on buying one with all the options, 2026 looks like a bargain.

SEMA 2025 Best in Show: The Automotive Gear That Stood Out
  Every year, I scour the annual SEMA Show to find the best new vehicles and products on display. The 2025 show had some highlights, but was thin on innovation and truly new products worth talking about.   There is little doubt that the pandemic, supply chain issues, tariffs, and economic uncertainties have impacted the automotive aftermarket. Business consolidation remains a prevailing...
Trump Issues First Pardon for Cutting a Switchback: Michelino Sunseri Saga Reaches Surprise End
  After more than a year of controversy and court battles, the Michelino Sunseri saga has taken a surprising turn. On Nov. 10, President Donald J. Trump pardoned the ultra-athlete, who in September 2024 was charged with cutting a switchback in Grand Teton National Park (GTNP) during a Fastest Known Time (FKT) attempt.   Sunseri was subsequently found guilty in September 2025...

No Fireworks? No Problem. Alaskans Celebrate Fourth of July by Launching Cars Off a Cliff
  For years, Alaskans have been gathering on the Fourth of July for a unique and destructive tradition known as the Glacier View Car Launch. While most towns and cities in America celebrate the holiday with fireworks displays, local bans on pyrotechnics make it illegal throughout much of the state. The alternative? Launching junkyard vehicles off a 300-foot cliff into an...
Quicker and Much More Fuel Efficient for Just $2K: 2026 Hyundai Palisade Hybrid Review
  Once I come to a complete stop on a barren straight patch of Texas highway, the engine automatically shuts off. Undeterred, I hold the brake with my left foot and bury the accelerator with my right foot. Nothing happens. That is, until I lift my left foot from the brake.   In the blink of an eye, the engine kicks on...

A Backcountry Ski That Feels at Home Inbounds: Blizzard Zero G 96 Review
  There are plenty of frontside skis I’d take into the backcountry because even if they’re a bit heavy on the climb, they’re worth it for the downhill. The reverse has never been true for me. I cant think of any backcountry-specific skis that really hold up against inbounds-focused skis when it comes to lift-served terrain.   On most days when I...
A Jacket for Every Hunt, A Price You’ll Like: Kings Camo XKG Pinnacle Jacket Review
  The sharp blaring of my iPhone alarm snapped me awake at 4:45 a.m. I reached my hand out of the sleeping bag to shut the dang thing off, and quickly realized that the next few minutes were not going to be fun. It was easily below 15 degrees, and my hand was stinging within a few short seconds of being...
