MSR Hubba HP
This ultralight, freestanding solo tent weighs less than the Hubba tent, yet offers increased protection for unexpected early-season snowfalls or persistent coastal winds. Greater coverage to the tent canopy and lighter fabrics all-around ensure that the Hubba HP tent holds its own in more extreme 3-season conditions, yet still weighs in at well under 3 lbs (1.36kg).
Our Verdict
The Hubba is one of my favourite tents, the reasons? Good internal volume, ability to sit upright easily, large vestibule and its own poleset.
The HP model just gets better, I especially like the flysheet being tighter to the ground, this makes the single skin performance that much better.
In the fast and light pitch with flysheet and footprint the weight comes down to just a shade over 1kg (with ul pegs), this is a very competetive single skin weight considering the tent has its own poleset and the space it delivers.
