The MSR Elixir 2-Person Tent is a lightweight backpacking tent for you and your favorite hiking partner. With 50 inches of width space and 84 inches of length, you and your loved one, best friend, or puppy can sleep side by side without elbows getting in the way. The two person tent offers a door and vestibule for each side, making entering easy on everyone. Exiting the tent is simple too, go figure! A combination of solid fabric and mesh allows for enough breathability while maintaining privacy, so don't worry about those peeping squirrels deep in the backcountry. The rainfly features rain gutters at each entrance, allowing for drip-free entry/exit and the tent also includes a footprint, so you don't have to add anything extra to your cart. Headed out for a hot summer weekend?

Rated 5 out of 5 by pook from Great tent for Colorado hiking I have used this tent as my "one person" tent. Gives me plenty of room and I can get my gear inside during a heavy Rocky Mountain rain storm. The tent is easy to set up and take down. Having two set up options is great if you just want to get out of the sun taking a break on a long trail or just sitting out a quick rain. Tent cleans up well after a trip.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Stringo from Light weight 2 man te nt This is a quality, light weight tent. Fits 2 people comfortably. Packs down to fit in my pack nicely. I like that we could star gaze without the fly.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Lemony from Great Budget Buy My partner and I bought this for backpacking and finally got a chance to test it out. Camped out in western Mass with a low of 25F that night. Kept us warm and dry with our 30degree sleeping bags and 2.2R value pads. Had some condensation on the top inside, but not much dropped on us. Be careful not to stuff the mesh pockets as it restricts are flow. Set up and take down is very easy even for one person. Looking forward to more trips with this tent.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Malexander93 from Excited To Try! I bought this a month ago and I am really looking forward to using it. I want to start backpacking more often and car camp. I figured that this would be a great starter tent for me and can't wait to use it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by kayakerguy from solid kayaking tent Needed to update to a freestanding tent for kayaking in the San Juan Islands. Also wanted a bit more room since weight was not as big of an issue in a kayak. So far used once on a 3 day trip and am very satisfied . At 6 foot 4 there is enough length and the extra space for gear is nice. Vestibules are large and the included footprint adds to the overall value. Looking forward to many more trips!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Neil from Great design. Easy assembly. Well thought. Bought for an Brooks Range arctic trip. Glad I did. No regrets. Has become a favorite. A great piece of gear. Used a space blanket for footprint. A great wilderness habitat for humanity.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Frank from Great tent. Easy to assemble. I used this tent to camp in Yosemite and it worked great. It kept me warm, it's easy to assemble and the tarp floor definitely helps keep it clean and dry.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Andrew from MSR Tents are the BEST I selected the MSR Elixir 2 after an extensive search. My primary use will be bike touring in Central and South America. I didn’t want a super ultra-light because I was concerned about long term strength. I also wanted a tent that I could take backpacking. This tent will serve both purposes. The materials are high quality and I’m confident they will survive the wet tropics and windy mountains. I did a pre-trip pitch and the tent goes up with ease. I really like that it includes a footprint. Having trekked and climbed in Colombia, Venezuela and Ecuador, I really wish I had this tent. Some people might place it into the car-camping category or short hike category, but I think they’re a bunch of wimps. Its light. I'd take it on a two week self-supported mission to remote areas. No hesitation. I’ve been at high altitude and in humid jungle with inexpensive in-country equipment and I must say that this tent will make my future trips more enjoyable. Good quality, good weight, great price.

Aside from the foot print that attaches under the tent does the tent have a tarp bottom itself?

Asked by: Chloe

Hey there! The MSR Elixir 2-Person Tent has a footprint included. Huzzah! As for an additional covering for the inside part of the tent's floor, most tents do not come with something like that these days. If you have a dog with sharp nails or something like that and you're worried about the inner part of the tent's floor being torn, you could use any sort of tarp, canvas, or even a blanket to provide extra protection. If you have a really cute dog you can send pictures addressed to "Galactus."
