There are a few other differences worth pointing out. The material on the HP is much lighter but doesn't give up any strength over the standard Mutha Hubba. It is the nicest material MSR uses on any of their tents (20D, 330T nylon on the fly and canopy for the HP vs. 40D, 238T on the fly on the standard). The fly on the HP also has better ventilation due to a couple of vents sewn into it. The fly also as laminated patches to reinforce the guyout points. As was mentioned, the canopy (body) of the tent is mostly nylon on the HP version allowing it to be warmer in colder temperatures. It does this by trapping more heat. Therefore the HP would be a better extended 3-season tent making it more versatile. A couple of small details include a tension system at each corner using cordage and delrin ladder locks making it possible to get a tighter pitch. The tighter the pitch, the more weather resistant the tent. Viewing and comparing them side to side would show a higher quality tent in the HP over the standard Mutha Hubba. The HP version is also 5 oz. lighter when comparing the minimum weight (poles, canopy, and fly).

The regular has an entirely mesh top and walls. So any protection is coming from the fly. The HP, as pictured above has more nylon for more protection without the fly. The HP would be a better choice on anything but a cloudless, windless night.
