In 1973 the first Hilleberg tent was sold: the Keb – a two-person ridge tent. From what we know this was the first tent made that offered simultaneous pitching of the inner and outer tent. This was 35 years ago and modern development in tents made this type soon obsolete and it was replaced by tunnel and dome designs. Our personal interest in wilderness camping equipment developed hand in hand with our professional life, resulting in uncountable backpacking trips and a focus on quality and function in tent design.
