Description

Product Overview

The MSR Universal 2-Person Tent Footprint Tarp is engineered to be the ultimate ground shield for the modern outdoor enthusiast. Constructed from high-tenacity nylon with a 3000mm waterproof rating, this footprint delivers a reliable barrier against rain, snow melt, and abrasive terrain. Its 82″ x 48″ dimensions provide full coverage for the MSR Hubba Hubba, FreeLite 2, Carbon Reflex 2, Access 2, and Thru Hiker Mesh House 2, as well as any comparable 2‑person tent. The tarp’s lightweight design—just 0.44 pounds—means it adds negligible bulk to your pack, while the reinforced 10‑inch center‑to‑center spacing ensures durability where the tent’s floor meets the ground. The gray color blends subtly with natural surroundings, reducing visual impact while still being easy to spot when you need to retrieve it. Packaged in a compact 9.84″ x 7.28″ x 1.34″ stuff sack, the footprint is ready for quick deployment and storage.

Usage

Designed for backpacking, camping, and hiking, this footprint excels in a variety of environments—from alpine meadows to forested valleys. When setting up camp, simply lay the footprint on level ground before erecting your tent; the pre‑cut shape aligns perfectly with the tent’s floor, eliminating the need for trimming or adjustments. The waterproof nylon repels moisture, keeping the interior dry even after heavy rain, while the durable fabric resists punctures from rocks, sticks, and campsite debris. Because the footprint is lightweight, it is ideal for multi‑day treks where every ounce counts. It also serves as a protective layer for car camping, extending the life of your tent by shielding it from damp ground and sand. The included stuff sack makes transport effortless, and the 3‑year limited warranty provides peace of mind for long‑term use.
