After visiting the NTS Hill House, designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh in Helensburgh, I made a plan to hike up a familiar route and wild camp with my new tent.
I’d purchased the Fjallraven Abisko Lite 1 which is a 4 season, wind stable and all in one pitch.
I love my MSR Hubba Hubba NX but I sometimes I find it draughty and cold, worry about its stability in wind and the inner gets wet in rain as it’s an inner pitch first. I’ll use both tents and love the space the MSR has. The tents including footprint are similar weights. 1.9 kg & 1.88 kg
For a full review of the Fjallraven Abisko Lite 1 I recommend watching @BUSHMANandBLUE he does an excellent review.
