In 1969, Seattle engineer and lifelong mountaineer Larry Penberthy formed Mountain Safety Research as a one-man crusade dedicated to improving the safety of climbing equipment. The fuel behind Larry's passionate fire was a simple belief that still drives our team today:
The idea that better, safer, more reliable equipment is the key to unlocking greater adventures.

Designing for Durability and Longevity
We build products to last, offering outdoor enthusiasts more adventures and reducing the amount of goods piling up in landfills.
Our first priority is to design and manufacture durable, long-lasting products. Extensive testing—both in-house and in the field—allows us to ensure that our products will stand up to the wear and tear to which our customers subject their gear.
Our products have stood the test of time, and we often hear stories from customers who are still using MSR stoves from the 1980s. We believe in what we make and stand behind it.

Performance: It didn’t leak for rain. It handled a snow squall. Above all else, it didn’t budge in an epic night terror storm with 80-90 mph winds (speed confirmed the next morning at the ranger station). To be clear, it was fully staked and taught-lined that night. Plenty of room for two. Double vestibules for gear (although it doesn’t come with enough stakes for vestibules, but those are easy enough to carve up quick in the field). Pockets to hold stuff and many loops to hang stuff. Glowing zippers are great. For backpacking it’s light enough if one totes tent and one totes food. For car camping it is good too. Wonderful product!
