Kelty Gunnison BackPacking Tent

By Editor | March 6, 2009

Kelty Gunnison Backpacking TentThe Kelty Gunnison backpacking tent is a lightweight, inexpensive take on the simple two-door/two-vestibule design that has served backpackers well for years. Set-up is fast and easy thanks to colour-coded corners and pole clips, while the body is well ventilated with large mesh panels on the top and sides. Noiseless door zips combined with two doors means you don’t have to wake your partner to sneak out for a pee in the night.

But get on the trail and you’ll immediately become aware of the ample support they provide-even with a heavy pack. This is a well-thought-out boot, from the heel strike that’s been cut out in the shank for added padding, to the breathable fabric/leather upper, the Gore- Tex liner and the Outlast footbed.
