RidgeNote verdict

The Hubba Hubba has been the default do-everything backpacking tent for years, and the LT revision shaves weight without giving up the things that made it popular: two doors, two vestibules, a genuinely livable interior, and a freestanding pitch that goes up fast on rock or sand. Under three pounds for a double-wall two-person tent is competitive, though dedicated ultralighters will still go lighter with a trekking-pole shelter and give up the convenience. For two backpackers who want a bombproof, easy-living tent that handles real three-season weather, this is the safe, excellent answer - you pay a premium, but you are paying for MSR reliability.
