Company Info:
Mountain Safety Research, or MSR, is an American corporation located in Seattle, Washington, and owned by Cascade Designs. It was founded in 1969 by Larry Penberthy because he was not pleased with the safety and reliability of outdoor equipment. In 1973 Penberthy developed the MSR Model 9 camp stove, a breakthrough design because of its relatively efficient performance in cold weather. He also invented an ice-ax pick design that was believed to dig into the ice better and stop a slide. Penberthy also introduced possibly the first metal-shafted ice axes that have now wholly replaced earlier, wooden-shaft designs.
The company was acquired by REI in 1981 and is currently owned by Cascade Designs. In 2000, MSR merged with Edgeworks, the manufacturer of Moss, Walrus and Armadillo tents. Shortly after, these brands were discontinued and all tents are now branded under the MSR label. In August 2001, MSR was acquired by Cascade Designs.
