MSR Snowshoe Bag

Well…it’s time to pack away the snowshoes. Just purchased the MSR Snowshoe bag to pack away my Atlas 1025s – a perfect fit. Fits all 22″ and 25″ MSR snowshoes.

This pack features a ripstop nylon mesh which is rugged, long lasting, and allows for great ventilation and breathability. It also has an internal pocket for snowshoe accessories such as flotation tails, and exterior velcro loops for pole attachments. This bag is easy to carry thanks to the adjustable shoulder strap and handle which allows for different carry options.

“Great for worry-free packing and storage, this convenient, zippered bag is built from extra tough fabric to protect your snowshoes and the things you pack them in.”

MSR Titan Cup

On its own or paired with the Titan Kettle, this ultra light, ultra tough titanium cup is an essential piece of outdoor kit. Rugged folding wire handles collapse nicely around the cup for easy storage. In a survival situation, a metal cup gives you the ability to cook food (albeit in small portions…if you have anything to cook at all) and more importantly – boil your water! In a crunch, toss a few stones in it and you have an improvised bear bell to alert bears of your presence. The MSR Titan Cup is simple and totally functional.

Volume 13.5 cu. in / 0.4 liters
Weight 1.9 oz / 54 g
Country of Origin Made in Thailand

Cost: Around CDN $40.

Although it might seem a bit expensive for a simple metal cup – this one should last you a lifetime. Remember: Quality…Not Quantity.
