The MSR Access 3 Winter Tent is your ideal companion for winter backcountry excursions. Designed to accommodate three people, this lightweight tent ensures you enjoy a cozy night without the burden of a heavy mountaineering tent.
Featuring limited mesh on the tent body, it retains warmth during those chilly nights, while the overall light weight allows you to move easily while skiing or hiking. The central-support frame is robust enough to handle overnight snow-loading, and the large hooped vestibule with snow flaps provides ample shelter for climbing gear.
The spacious floor plan and generous headroom create a comfortable environment for three climbers and their winter gear. Setting up is a breeze with the unified, hubbed Easton® Syclone™ pole, made from composite materials that resist breaking in harsh winter conditions. Rainfly vents help reduce condensation, while the Xtreme Shield™ waterproof polyurethane coating keeps the elements at bay.
This tent includes two doors, two internal pockets, and multiple guyout points for added convenience.

I love this tent! It’s spacious enough for three of us and our gear. It handled the snow well and was easy to set up. Definitely one of the top rated mountaineering tents I’ve used.
