MSR ELIXIR 2 REVIEW | in the field test and review | summit camp Ben Ledi

The MSR Elixir 2 is a great tent, and after about two years of regular use all over Scotland, I thought it was time to finally review this beauty of a 2 person tent, which weighs in at 2.6kg and costs around £250. It’s a palatial one person tent, or a comfortable 2 person tent, with bags of headroom, a decent length to it for all but the tallest of folk, and two entrances and storage porches. Very easy to put up, and high quality materials make this a great option for anybody wanting quality and functionality without spending mega bucks. I do use the Elixir as a 4 season tent, even though it’s technically a 3 season tent, and although it’s quite a in airy tent, you can pack up the edges with snow in winter and reduce wind getting in. It’s a relatively stable tent, being semi geodesic in construction, but it probably finds its limit in extremely windy conditions. I wouldn’t take it out onto a summit if 40mph winds were forecast, but then I wouldn’t summit camp in extreme wind, I’d find shelter and pitch there, or bivvy!
