MSR Access™ 3 Three-Person, Four-Season Tent

Winter-grade warmth without the weight—built for three.

The MSR Access™ 3 is purpose-built for winter backcountry expeditions where weight and performance cannot be compromised. This four-season tent combines robust engineering with surprising portability, making it the go-to choice for ski tourers, split borders, and snowshoers operating in alpine and near-treeline environments. Designed to handle overnight snow loading without sagging or collapsing, the Access 3's reinforced frame geometry sheds weight efficiently while maintaining structural integrity through harsh winter conditions. Setup in cold, gloved conditions is straightforward, a critical advantage when daylight fades fast and temperatures plummet. The tent's thermal design minimizes condensation and retains warmth, keeping occupants comfortable during extended cold nights without the bulk and weight penalty of larger mountaineering shelters. Whether you're establishing a base camp to launch powder descents or moving camp across a multiday traverse, the Access 3 strikes the balance between livability and mobility. Its three-person capacity provides adequate space for gear storage and movement, while the lightweight construction ensures you're not sacrificing speed and endurance on the hill. Tested in demanding alpine conditions, this tent delivers the protection serious winter adventurers demand.
