Hilleberg
"Kaitum 3"

   Hilleberg Kaitum 3
  Hilleberg Kaitum 3

The Kaitum is essentially the Ultralight version of the Keron, but with a bit more width and quite a bit less weight. It is ideal for trips where light weight is a higher priority than total strength, but where true all-season, all-weather capability is still a requirement, and where extra comfort is important. The secret of the Kaitum is its combination of the Kerlon 1200 outer tent fabric and 9 mm poles – which keeps the weight to a minimum without sacrificing all-condition strength – and its two door/two vestibule design, which affords its tremendous degree of comfort and flexibility. The Kaitum’s Tunnel Tent design and ultra light weight make it ideal for mobile adventures, where you move your camp every day, and it is equally well-suited for both long and short adventures. Outstanding for use in protected terrain any time, the Kaitum is also easily stout enough to handle forays in exposed and/or above tree-line terrain in all but the worst conditions.
