Description

  Freestanding solo tent; remarkably light and expedition-ready

  Since the Hilleberg Soulo's freestanding construction allows it to be pitched almost anywhere, and since it is remarkably light and tremendously strong, it is ideal for almost any adventure. During its development, nearly every tester found the Soulo perfect for whatever trip it was used on. Mountaineers, both recreational and professional, will take to its strength and low weight, as will backcountry hunters and winter campers. Bicycle, motorcycle and paddle tourers will choose this freestanding solo tent for its simplicity and compact packed size. Backpackers in all seasons, long distance trekkers, and weekend hikers alike will be drawn to the Soulo's light weight and integrated vestibule, and ski tourers and ski mountaineers will appreciate its snow load handling. Tall users will love the length and remarkable overall roominess of this freestanding solo tent.

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

Is the ‘World’s Lightest Rooftop Tent’ Just a Ground Tent for Your Roof?
  Rooftop tents have gained massive traction over the past decade, as theyre fun, comfortable, and convenient. For all of their advantages, however, they can weigh a ton and cost a pretty penny.

Burly Belt Could Replace Your Running Vest: Raide Research LF 2L
  I was halfway into my 4-hour mountain run in Alaska’s Chugach Range as I crested the next ridge on my route. My run had taken me from sea level, up a 4,000-foot climb in 2 miles, and off-trail into an alpine valley, where another ridgeline, summit, and multi-thousand-foot descent separated me from completing my loop. It was September, and while...

All-Day Comfort for Serious Saddle Hunters: Latitude Method 3 Review
  Getting an opportunity at a good deer requires a lot of time in the woods. Sometimes it’s not about how far you can go, but how long you can stay in the tree. It doesn’t matter how light your treestand or saddle is; if it’s not comfortable, you’ll dream up every reason to call it quits early.   I’ve had the...
Ultralight Jacket Packs Alpaca Fiber Insulation: PAKA Mayu Review
  Whenever I pack for a fall backpacking or climbing trip, I always go back and forth about whether I should bring one item: a puffy jacket. Carrying one takes up space and adds some (arguably negligible) weight. During shoulder seasons, I often wonder if it’s really worth bothering.   After testing the PAKA Mayu Ultralight jacket, however, my internal debate over...
