MSR (Mountain Safety Research) began in the 1960s due to one man's crusade over the quality and safety of the climbing and mountain equipment of his day. Today MSR not only develops exceptional outdoor equipment, but they lead the industry in facets from back country tents, cookers and cooking equipment and other outdoor gear. Truly exceptional quality, year after year, is what sets MSR apart from the rest. Legendary pieces include the Pocket Rocket and Whisperlite stoves and also the Hubba range of tents.
