What is the MSR Elixir 3 good for?
The updated Elixir is perfect for camping, backpacking and first-time overnighters who want a durable, spacious and dependable tent without the faff. It delivers comfort, simplicity and reliability across frontcountry and backcountry trips.
How will some of the key features of the MSR Elixir 3 enhance my experience?
A true rectangular floorplan and spacious interior fits wider sleeping pads with ease while the unique pole geometry provides exceptional headroom. The freestanding design, colour-coded poles and webbing make for fast and intuitive setup while the mix of mesh and solid fabric panels offer a balance of ventilation, warmth and privacy. Large StayDry doors feature built-in rain gutters and updated kickstand vents for added ventilation while large side-entry vestibules give you added storage space for muddy gear and packs. The included footprint protects your tent floor and boosts durability right out of the box.
