$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.

The Best Heaters to Install in Your Rig This Winter
  A very cold and wet camping experience a few weeks ago reminded me of the importance of a good heater in your rig.

Shortly after that, it started raining, which turned to snow a few...
Level Up Your Adventure Readiness: 2025 Nissan Rogue Rock Creek Review
  I press the hill descent control button in the center of the drive mode dial and take a deep breath before slowly letting my foot off the brake.

Why I Let My Kid Roam Free Outside
  When I heard the news that a Georgia mom was arrested for reckless conduct after someone spotted her ten-year-old son walking alone less than a mile from home, the first thing I did was open Google Maps.
