Overview
A backpacker sharing a trail with a partner gets the Hubba Hubba LT, a freestanding tent with a rectangular floor and a body that is mostly solution-dyed micromesh. DAC poles, corner hardware and a clip system make up the frame.
The floor does not taper, so wide sleeping pads fit, and the symmetrical design speeds setup. Pockets with cable ports, gear loft pockets and a clothesline add convenience. The limitation is season range, since the mostly mesh body is aimed at mild three season trips.
Who it's for
Two hikers who share gear and want storage on both sides will find the floor and vestibule areas stated. Solo hikers wanting less weight, and groups of more people, should consider a different size.
Pros and cons
- Two doors and two vestibules
- Rectangular floor fits wide pads
- Mostly mesh body for airflow
- Taped seams and clip poles
- Three season rating only
- Mostly mesh body
- Hand wash care only
- Footprint not listed
Performance notes
A mostly mesh body lets air move through and blocks bugs, while the rainfly and taped seams handle rain. A symmetrical design means the pole sleeves and clips go up the same way on each side. The coating and waterproof rating on the fly and floor are stated in the key facts.
