hi I'm Dale Cara Casas with mountain safety research here today to talk to you about the new MSR elixir 2/10 the elixir 2/10 offers you significantly more livability features than other leading temps while being as lightweight or lighter you can set up the tent in two different freestanding modes standard set up with the tent body or in fast and light set up with the included footprint we designed the tent to be extremely easy to set up color coated poles clips and webbing show you how everything fits together once set up you can see how the tent offers so much livable space the symmetrical pole geometry maximizes head and shoulder room throughout the tent not just in one peaked area and when we say it sleeps 2 we really mean it to mattresses fit side-by-side and there's lots of space the elixir has 2 large doors for easy entry and exit and two large vestibules so storing lots of gear is no problem the rain fly has kickstand vents but if you want more venting and greater visibility the rain fly can roll back for excellent views and stargazing and if you like your privacy we've used breathable mesh and solid fabrics to provide the best balance between ventilation warmth and privacy if rough weather rolls in the tents durable polyester and nylon materials waterproof coatings and quality construction will keep you dry and comfortable and we designed the two large stay dry entrances with built in rain gutters to channel water away so you don't get dripped on getting into or out of the tent when it's time to head back home the tent fits into its own stuff sack for easy packing and there you have it the elixir 2 from MSR comes with a free footprint which is a $40 value and first in longtime backpackers will really love it's lightweight and livable features to now
