Description

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

  The Hilleberg Kaitum 4 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. The standard sized vestibules can be fully rolled away for tre­mendous venting, and 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.

Where Mystery Ranch Ends and YETI Begins: Ranchero EDC Backpack Review
  If it aint broke, dont fix it. Those wise words often conflict with the increasingly consumer-driven, never-satisfied outdoor industry. Its not inherently nefarious (mostly); outdoor athletes, recreational adventurers, and daily grinders will wear down, nitpick, and expose areas of improvement time and again.   Sometimes, a small change results in massive backlash, while other times, a sweeping change will drastically evolve...
