In her latest review for GetOutThereGear, Alicia takes us through her experience with the MSRElixir 4 tent. As a seasoned outdoors enthusiast, Alicia sets up this four-person tent with her baby boy on a sunny night in Alice Lake Provincial Park. While the tent proves to be spacious and comfortable, she does note that setting it up solo can be a bit more challenging compared to other tents she is used to. Nonetheless, with its ample headspace and cozy interior, the MSRElixir 4 tent offers a pleasant camping experience.
Alicia goes on to describe how she slept comfortably in the tent without the fly overhead, enjoying an unobstructed view of the surrounding trees. Impressed with its suitability for car camping and its relatively lightweight design, she concludes that the tent could also be taken on the occasional backcountry trip. However, she does caution that proper setup of the unique pole design and the fly is vital for optimal performance.
To address potential concerns about rain leakage, Alicia conducts a thorough rain test. Setting the tent up in her Squamish backyard during an atmospheric River Event, she leaves it out for 30 hours. Upon inspection, she finds the interior of the tent perfectly dry, leading her to attribute any reported issues to the possibility of incorrect setup. Despite this minor critique, Alicia remains positive about the MSRElixir 4 tent, emphasizing its affordability, roominess, and ability to keep campers dry and comfortable.
