To create the Hubba HP Tent MSR took the ultimate free-standing solo tent, added greater coverage to the tent canopy and updated with lighter fabrics all-around. The result is a tent that not only performs better in more challenging conditions, but actually weighs less too.

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).
* Ultralight: Technical fabric shaves ounces and provides more protection from snow, sand, and wind.
* Livable: Unique pole configuration provides maximum interior space, a Stay-Dry™ entrance, and large vestibule for storing gear.
* Quick and Easy Setup: All-in-one hub-and-swivel pole design is strong and simple to use.
* Versatile: Can be used as a double-wall tent for full protection or in two freestanding tarp-shelter modes: with optional footprint, or just the fly and poles only for the ultimate in weight savings

Set up fast and light, and keep a trim weight with the Hubba Hubba Tent from MSR. At 4 pounds and sporting a unique, single-pole construction, it's easy to set up and take down with the all-in-1 hub-and-swivel pole system that gives it strength and durability.
MSR made the Hubba Hubba HP 2-Person 3-Season Tent with a super lightweight fabric that cuts weight down to 3lb 11oz. Plus, this fabric adds durability to the tent, and water-and UV-proof protection to the fly. You might think a tent that light would be quite cramped. On the contrary, the Hubba Hubba HP's hub-and-swivel pole design creates enough room for both people to sit up comfortably near each end of the tent. Two doors eliminate middle-of-the-night crawl-overs. Pitch just the fly and footprint (footprint sold separately) on summer desert trips, and pack the HP's body and fly for wet spring and fall camping.

MSR® took the ever popular Hubba Hubba and added greater coverage with less mesh and more lighter weight materials, making it more suitable for the spring and fall or use in alpine environments.

Great minimalist tent | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
After almost six years of frequent (30+ nights/year) use, my MSR Sidewinder had to be retired due to a leaky floor and zipper failure. Because it was essentially beyond repair, MSR offered me a deal on a new tent, and I purchased the Hubba Hubba at cost. I recently used it for a week in Yellowstone, where temperatures were mild at night and there was little wind or precipitation. That said, I can't comment on how well the tent holds up in adverse conditions, but I can say I've been very pleased with it in terms of set-up, design and overall quality. The single-pole arrangement was a little confusing at first -- it's a little awkward extending all of the sections -- but when I discovered how incredibly fast the set-up is, I was sold. I especially like the fact that there is no pushing of poles through tent fabric, which was always an exercise in frustration with other tents. My biggest complaint is that the tent doesn't come with an attic, a feature I adored with the Sidewinder. Even more annoying is the fact that the stand-alone attic isn't compatible with the Hubba Hubba. That said, I've been able to make due pretty well with the pockets at either end of the tent (although I wish they were a little deeper so they'd hold more gear). I also find the tent a bit hard to get in and out of with the rainfly attached, due to the fact that one corner of the fly must be staked to the ground. I also should note, however, that I have yet to use the Hubba Hubba in the backcountry. When I do, I expect to appreciate its minimalist design when it's in my pack. | |

A Fantastic 2-Person, 3-Season Warm Weather Backpacking Tent! | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
Probably one of the best 3-season tents I have ever owned. Iâve used it several times now including twice in early spring on Emory Peak in Big Bend. It holds up great in rain and hard wind. I like the entire mesh top, opposed from the HP, because on nice nights you can view the stars without being bothered by insects. It's the closest thing to being tent-less. Now that being said, this is not the warmest tent, it keeps out the wind and rain but you better have a good sleeping bag; the design however helps keep condensation almost 99% out of the tent when wearing the fly and allows good circulation. After I got it dirty on trips it was very easy to clean with just warm water and sunlight. I do suggest the footprint though and maybe some ground hog stakes if you are going to be in harsher elements. | |

the Mesh Version | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
i just retired my MSR Hubba Hubba after years of hard usage. all around a good tent its been with me on trips ranging from the AT to a island in the middle of the ocean. its more roomy than most two person tents i have slept in, i was even able to fit three on occasion though my friend in the middle felt a little awkward. while on the AT we experienced a harsh thunder storm with heavy rain and strong wind for over what felt like the whole night. the tent held up very well with only a little drop of water on my forehead towards the end. the first thing to mess up on this tent was one of the poles however with the help of duck-tape it managed to last two more trips before snapping. the HP looks awesome and i would like to buy it however i do feel MSR tends to over price. the only other negative i could think of is when packing i would usually not be able to pack the poles along with the tent in the stuff sack however, i believe the HP has fixed this problem by replacing most of the mesh with a synthetic fabric. | |

The search is over! | |

| My search for the perfect tent is over!!! I've been searching for the perfect tent for some time now and have bought, tested and returned many a tent - but no more. This tent is really light, has enough room for me and my gear, nice vestibule size and most important no condensation problems. With 6 stakes my tent is secure and while there are extra guy-out points I’ve found no need to use them. Everyone at camp kept checking out my tent and was impressed by its roominess. I couldn’t have made a better purchase. Well worth the money! | |

MSR Hubba Hubba HP Tent 2-Person 3-Season | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
This is a pretty awesome tent! It is large and roomy for a two person. The high point of the tent is in the middle, so it is easy to move around in. I've slept through multiple rain storms in this tent, and have never had an issue with water leaking. It is a very lightweight tent though, and can rip easily, so be careful with it! | |

decent light tent | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
| I got this tent specifically for ultralight solo trips. I am 6'0" and I fit just right, anyone taller than me would have problems. So the tent is cramped, but hey, it's a ultralight solo tent. The tent was surprisingly sturdy in 60 mph gusty winds of death valley. However, the 2 ventilation windows on top could've been designed to have zippers for closure, w/o sacrificing too much weight. Otherwise in high winds the tent becomes a wind tunnel. | |

Just what I wanted | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
| I field tested 5 different solo and lightweight 2 man tents for monthlong trip last August. This 1 man was as easy as the 2 person. Easy side access. Good ventilation. I'm 6'2" and it was easy to change clothes inside. Big enough. It also feels sturdier than the ones with mesh inner. I carefully chose this tent and it was everything I was looking for. | |

So, but no cigar. | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
| Close, but no cigar. The HP was designed to ad more protection then the Hubba, but leaving the vents without the ability to zip them during very wind and/or cold nights makes the occupant very exposed. At the possibility of more condensation and a little more weight then this tent I would like a HP+ that has closable vents. Just enough room inside for a mat and some gear at one end. Single pole + small vestbule pole makes set up easy. This tent isn't really good for the summer and its really not good for the winter (vents without zippers). Its only good for non windy early fall. Too narrow a use for the money. A Mountain Hardwear Bunker 1 may be a better tent for cold and windy conditions. | |
