In 1969, Larry Penberthy, a Seattle engineer and lifelong mountaineer, founded Mountain Safety Research, a one-man crusade to improve the safety of climbing gear. The fuel behind Larry's passionate fire was a simple belief that still drives the MSR team today:

The idea that better, safer, more reliable gear is the key to having greater adventures.

From this idea came a pioneering outdoor company whose innovations have revolutionized the way people experience the outdoors around the world. Today, MSR has a tight-knit team that is still obsessed with designing the most reliable and highest performing equipment possible, using all of its engineering and scientific knowledge to find better solutions to the challenges of the mountains.

Today MSR offers a complete range of equipment for living and enjoying the outdoors. From the tent, to the stove, to the cooker, you will find what you need. Bivouacking, hiking with MSR equipment, is to ensure a good time.
