First prize: MSR Hubba Hubba LT worth $1249

Subscribe to Wilderness in December or January and you’ll be in the draw to win a share of more than $3000 of the world’s best outdoor gear from MSR and Therm-a-Rest. Learn more about the prizes at www.ampro.co.nz.

First prize

MSR Hubba Hubba LT $1249

Two-person tent 

Airy and spacious, the lightweight freestanding Hubba Hubba LT 2 has room to stretch out for both you and your tramping partner.

The interior is a roomy 2.95m² with no taper, to accommodate modern rectangular sleeping pads. The tent body is mostly solution-dyed micromesh for breathability and insect protection – perfect for star-gazing on clear nights. 

Tech-friendly pockets feature cable ports at the corners for headphones and charging cords. Large overhead gear loft pockets are perfect for headlamps, sunglasses and other quick-access items, and an included clothesline lets you dry damp clothes.

It has two entrances and vestibules, super durable metal corner hardware, kickstand fly vents for extra airflow and a roll-top stuff sack. 

Second prize

Therm-a-Rest Boost 650 0ºC sleeping bag $699.99 (regular)

With Therm-a-Rest’s Boost 650 0ºC sleeping bag, you get to pick the shape and temperature that keeps you comfy all night long. Enjoy the spacious freedom of the semi-rectangular bag, or close the WarmZip for the cosiness of a mummy bag and ‘boost’ the warmth by up to 6ºC. 

It has multi-use arm holes to more easily reach the WarmZip, read a book, play cards or simply ventilate on warm nights. 

The 650-fill RDS-certified hydrophobic down is allocated to key areas with Zoned Insulation for refined heat efficiency and maximum coziness.

Eco-conscious materials are used – the shell and liner are made of 100% recycled, soft-to-the-touch nylon and coated with PFAS-free water repellent.

Third prize

Therm-a-Rest NeoLoft sleeping mat $599.99 (regular)

With the cutting-edge innovation of ultralight pads and the supreme comfort of car camping pads, the NeoLoft takes tramping comfort to a whole new level.

At 11.7cm thick and with a larger than normal sleeping area, it delivers excellent stability. It’s made of a plush stretch-knit fabric – a stretchy baselayer-like fabric that is softer to the touch than the nylon typically used on sleeping mats. Its stretch properties help to minimise pressure points by conforming to the shape of your body.

Inside there is ContourCore Matrix, which insulates by minimising convective heat loss with two stacked rows of triangular chambers, and a ThermaCapture layer that reflects body heat to deliver an all-season R-value of 4.7. 

Fourth prize

MSR Switch Stove System $359.99

The Switch is the ultimate all-in-one stove system for trampers seeking MSR performance and reliability. Eclipsing competitors in its class with unmatched versatility, this innovative system accommodates a variety of cookware with a quick flip of the pot supports. It has a pressure regulator for consistent cooking in all conditions and a built-in piezo ignitor. The system is complete with a pot lid, cork cosy, plastic nesting bowl, canister stand and PackTowl cleaning cloth.

Fifth prize

Therm-a-Rest Airhead Pillow $119.99

With an inflatable core and an ultra-soft topper, this pillow delivers comfy support after a day on the trail. It has a precise shape to nestle into the hood of your sleeping bag and packs small for easy travel.
