Jasper and the MSR Hubba Hubba

MSR Hubba Hubba Tent 2-Person 3-Season

May 2, 2011

I bought this tent for 2 reasons:

#1 - I wanted a lighter tent for 3 season solo outings. At 3lbs 14oz this was a great improvement that still provided me with optimal room and storage space. I found this to be one of the best tent designs as far as utilizing internal space availability. Specifically, the pole layout proved very affective at opening up head room.

I found this tent to be plenty sturdy. I was in two downpours and one windstorm. I stayed completely dry, and since then have re-coated the bottom seams to prevent any possible leaks.

#2 - Great deal - In making a decision between the Sierra Designs Lightning and this tent, I found a sale on craigslist for well under the price. Couldn't pass it up!

Overall, for the purpose and price of this tent, the Hubba Hubba is outstanding. If you keep in mind you aren't buying a tent to outlive gale force winds and a monsoon, you'll have a great experience staying in this valued shelter 2-3 seasons a year.

The small would be perfect for that situation.. or you can cinch it down for smaller loads. The XS has a max of 1200, so that would be too small

Great waders

Wright & McGill Co. Essentials Breathable Waders

Wright & McGill Co. Essentials Breathable Waders

Rating for this product: 5 May 20, 2012

I'm really happy with this purchase. I've previously owned and used neoprene waders which don't breath and tend to be a little more difficult to walk in. I picked up a pair of these, and I absolutely love them. They are lightweight, breathable, and easy to walk in. The hand warmers have come in handy for cooler evenings when you've had your hands in and out of the water, unhooking a brown, brook, or rainbow trout. The pocket has come in handy too. I used to use a fly vest, but found using the osprey talon 22 works a lot better for me. With the pocket on these waders, I can fit 2 fly boxes and my camera for easy access. They wades are pretty durable too. Here in minnesota, I've had to walk through a lot of thick grass and brush. Several times I've walked through some thorns, and yesterday I stumbled into a jagged stick. I was certain i would have put a hole in them, but they are still watertight. I'm still extra careful, as I know a thinner breathable fabric is going to be a lot easier to puncture.

I am 5'11" 160lbs, and went with the large. I tried on the medium, which were way too short and too tight. For anyone 6'1" or taller, you will want to go with an XXL.

This is a great deal though, great company, and a well made wader. I highly recommend these.
