Keron 4 GT
Hilleberg
Keron 4 GT
$1,660.00
Description

  Maximum strength and living space; 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 4 GT 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 4 GT 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.

  The Keron 4 GT is also a fine choice for dog mushers and cycle tourers because its extra large vestibule allows plenty of storage space for sled or bike equipment. In fact, you can park two bicycles in its vestibule!

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

Xtratuf Football Collection, ‘House of the Dragon’ Trail Runners, Flying 8K Camera, and More Emerging Gear
  Brand collaborations can sometimes feel like low-hanging fruit— but well still snatch these limited-edition gear runs as soon as they drop. Yes, its a bit silly that Merrell is releasing three different pairs of House of the Dragon-themed trail runners, or that Xtratuf just dropped a huge collection of boots for football fans.   But you know what? Merrell still makes...
BeerJunkie: Sipping a Shiner Shandy to Close Out Summer ’24
  Summer shandies theyre hit or miss, expressed Paul Pabst moments before taking his first sip. Some are too lemonade-y, he continued. If I wanted to get a lemonade, Id get a lemonade.

Workhorse Softshell Ski Pants: Outdoor Research Cirque III Review
  I came underprepared for an annual hut trip to Southern Colorado. Five years in a row, our group had enjoyed alpine starts, clear skies, and the massive sun-baked faces and couloirs of some of the states most impressive peaks. Spring skiing paradise.   But this year was different. It had been dumping snow and the winds whipped prior to the trip....

Lust-Worthy Custom Cycles: Eye Candy From MADE Bike Show 2024
  Another significant aspect of the 2024 MADE Bike Show was the extraordinary artistic talent that merged with blue-collar skills like welding, brazing, and painting. This combination churned out two-wheeled works of art that demanded long stares and bewildered scrutiny.   Although these eye-candy bicycles sometimes employed modern technologies, the visual tractor beam emanating from these builds made me stop in my...
A Beginner’s Guide to Watch Straps
  I was talking with a friend about his watch a few years ago when I was fairly new to the hobby of watch collecting. It had been a gift from his wife for their wedding back in 2017 and he wore it every day. The original leather strap had become worn and a bit cracked in some places near the...
An Ultralight Tent Without the Ultralight Tradeoffs: NEMO Hornet OSMO 3P Tent Review
  My climbing partner and I leaned back against a makeshift rock windbreak, looking out over the southern Gore Range just above treeline. We nervously monitored a deep black wall of cloud creeping toward us from the south, drenching and engulfing everything in its path in darkness.   It started with a burst of heavy hail. That sent us diving into the...

  For the first time in its 86-year history, the National Ski Patrol (NSP) is expanding its credentialing to include working patrollers with current first responder certifications.

A Different Kind of Recyclable Carbon Bike Wheel: HUNT H_Cyclo
  Recyclable carbon wheels have been around for a few years. However, until HUNTs H-Cyclo, they differed in construction and physical properties relative to traditional carbon bicycle wheels, frames, and forks.   HUNT Bike Wheel has seemingly solved the Rubiks cube, allowing the brand to recycle traditional thermoset carbon wheels back into materials that can form other carbon parts. The British brand...
