It all started in 1993 when we built our first tents for the USDI wilderness firefighters. We needed a name for our tents and, with our facility located on the banks of Catoma Creek, we thought it was a natural fit, so Catoma was born. Since 1993, we have continued to design and build tents for the fire service, US military and other specialized customers.

Over the years many of our customers asked, "Do you make a consumer version of this?" So we decided it was time to start making tents to fit your backpacking and camping needs. After a tweak here and there, we're "Dancing" with joy to show off our new line of consumer tents, each one named for a fitting dance move.


"Whether you Limbo, Twist, Worm, or Conga, add a little rhythm to your outdoor adventure with Catoma! "
