At the time Larry Pembassy launched Mountain Safety Research in 1969, the goal was to build gear for the climbers.The innovation that rally occurred was based on the field issue he had as a climber himself.The people who go to the backcountry evolved from the time and continues to evolve with MSR.However, the MSR design philosophy remains the same.Whether you are creating products for a climber or creating products for the minimalist, MSR is always creating products that will be an outdoor solution.

This model is foldable with carbon and uses a combination of push-button and Dyna-Lock for lightweight and compact storage.The Velcro strap will not loose during storage, and the basket that can lift the MSR snowshoe televator, etc.
