I have the msr mutha hubba 3P (now the hubba bubba 3) and my friends have the 2P and we’ve used them everywhere, on the beach, in the snow, sand, rocks and so on. It has been great in the BC rains. The 3P one is 4.5lbs but it is so nice bc at 6” I can sit up in it. Great for changing and such.
I got mine in 2021 and it’s been great. It’s so roomy
Just a quick note, after Cubs when they get to Scouts there is no more family camping. So I would go cheap on the "family" tent for now, unless you guys are planning on using it yourselves for separate family trips. Most cub packs only camp once or twice a year. I got my son a three person MSR tent and myself a single person tent. The three person fit him and his buddy perfect. Those sizes are also a lot easier to hump to a camp site. I'd put the extra money in an inflatable pad to sleep on. That makes a huge difference. I used my old closed cell foam pad the first trip with my son and I woke up sore. The inflatable pad was so much more comfortable and kept me a lot warmer.
MSR is excellent quality. I've personally hiked with and slept in the same tent but the 3 man. Overall, when packed up it is smaller and lighter than other 3 mans I've used, heck it's smaller and lighter than some 2 mans I've used.
MSR Hubba Hubba is a very spacious and airy tent, light and packable. I’ve got the one man version and it’s great for three season use. Pitches inner first but in reality it’s so quick to put up that’s it’s a non issue unless you’re in an absolute biblical monsoon.
That tent is another of the many knockoffs of the MSR Hubba Hubba. It's a decent 3 season, moderate wind conditions tent. True alpine mountaineering tents tend to still be of the geodesic dome type, with 4 or more poles, and use pole sleeves. As much as I despise pole sleeves, they do serve a purpose for high winds and snow, because the long seams distribute the stress, vs a tent that uses clips, where the stress is concentrated at only a few points.
Furthest I’d go is MSRs access line if you *need* a 4 season tent. But you could definitely get by with a myriad of lighter 3 season alternatives (msr hubba, Nemo dagger/hornet, similar models) Source: CO native, trail crew exp. , winter camping exp, all in my msr hubba hubba with a rain fly held together mostly w gear tape and aquaseal If I had the money for a Samaya I’d take my car to the shop for a good preventive maintenance workover so I can keep bagging peaks 🤷🏼♂️
