Hilleberg Keron 4GT-Practice Set-up of an Amazing  Expedition 4 Season Tent

Set up practice of the Hilleberg Keron 4GT.  Just an amazing tent.  12lbs 2oz, 5.5kilograms.

The optimal blend of maximum space, strength, flexibility and comfort in a lower weight package


When we 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. In addition to these traits, the GT models, with their one standard and one extended vestibule, boast even more room while maintaing an impressive weight to space ratio. As a result, the Keron 4 GT is a favorite of outdoor enthusiasts of all varieties. This includes the "professionals" --mountain guides, forest rangers, search and rescue teams, and military special operations units -- but it also includes "regular" users who want 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.

The Keron 4 GT is also an excellent choices for families, and 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.

And the Keron 4 GT is 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 the Keron 4 GT's vestibule!
