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.

User Ratings and Reviews

2 Stars Gunnison 4 and 4.1 do not use the same footprint
Not sure why I see it online so much as if it is the same model, but there are separate footprints for these tents.

3 Stars Too Small
Quality fine but seems quite small, almost as if for the 2.1. It was sealed in the package and I know that it shouldn’t stick past the edges, but I wonder. Either way not really worth the trouble of a return.
