Alpine™ Plate
Rugged yet lightweight stainless steel plate.
Our strong stainless steel plates stand up to heavy use yet don’t add a lot of weight or bulk to your pack. Designed to nest with MSR® 2L and 3L pots.
At first Penberthy set out to meet this challenge under a committee of The Mountaineers. He spent more than eighteen months testing stove fuels, the elongation of ropes, the holding power of pitons, the strength of ice axes and a whole list of other important but generally neglected issues. As time went on, the scope of the project stretched far beyond what the organization, and Penberthy, could afford.
MSR began in 1969 as a newsletter committed to improving mountaineering safety. Our founder, Larry Penberthy, was an engineer, professional inventor and lifelong mountaineer who dedicated himself to making the backcountry safer.
