MSR Hubba Hubba LT
Best lightweight shelter for serious backpackers and wilderness adventurers.
This is the rare backcountry shelter that prioritizes livability without the usual weight penalty. By ditching the tapered floor for a true rectangular shape, it finally lets you sleep comfortably without feeling cramped, though you sacrifice a bit of aerodynamic profile in high winds to get that extra room.
