MSR FreeLite 3-Person Ultralight Backpacking Tent

Backpacking groups who want to keep the shared load light will love the 3-person Freelite, an ultralight and spacious 3-season shelter that nearly disappears between three packs. The semi-freestanding design of the FreeLite is easy and quick to set up. Super strong DAC NFL tent poles, a DuraShield waterproof coating, and taped seams keep the weather where it belongs-outside. The cutaway rainfly saves weight and features large vestibules for storing any gear you don't want inside. Easy in-and-out vestibule doors have StayDry rain gutters to keep water from dripping onto you and your gear. Even with a generous 43 inches (1.09 m) of headroom, 4 inches more than the previous version, and the true rectangular floor (no foot taper like most other tents), the FreeLite is now nine ounces (255 g) lighter. The micromesh tent body provides excellent ventilation (and stargazing) and has a waterproof bathtub-style floor to protect it from the elements. Two no-curve tent doors keep you from having to crawl over your tent partner in the middle of the night, and feature zippers that are easy to use with one hand. They also zip closed to a single point so you always know where to open the door, even in the dark. New tech-friendly pockets feature cable ports at the corners for headphones and charging cords. Overhead gear loft pockets are perfect for headlamps, sunglasses, and other quick-access items.
