The Kelty Yellowstone 2 is an easy to set-up economical 3-season tent built to weather years in the field. Setting up this free-standing tent isn't quite as simple as flipping a switch, but the pole clips are nearly as quick when attaching them to the two Fiberglass poles. The design is roomy, creating a comfortable living space to stretch out in after a long day of hiking. The mesh ceiling and the side vents provides ample ventilation. Taped seams keep water out in case the clouds open up, and internal storage pockets organize essentials like socks and non-essentials like harmonicas.

In the early 1950's, Dick Kelty made backpacks for his friends in the Sierra Club. Time and experience proved that hiking was more pleasurable when the hiker could carry heavy loads without shoulder pain. This was accomplished with Kelty's ideas of a hipbelt and light weight aluminum frames. A few of Kelty's popular items are backpacks, adjustable poles, rain covers for backpacks, camp pillows, fanny packs, a carport tent or shelter, Thermolite Quallo sleeping bags,and chuckwagon dog packs. ....read more
