Every ounce packed on thru-hikes that last months must be carefully considered, so needlessly throwing a three-pound tent in our pack when we could opt for the ten-ounce MSR Thru-Hiker Mesh House 1 instead is a no-brainer. Its ultralight design delivers protection from bugs when thru-hikes go through the High Sierras on the PCT or the buggy Blue Ridge Mountains on the Appalachian Trail. A versatile design lets us pitch it under MSR's Hiker 70 or 100 Wing (sold separately) when we need protection from bugs and rain, and the non-freestanding design opts out of traditional poles for our own trekking poles to reduce weight even more. The Thru-Hiker comes with six MSR Needle stakes, so we can be sure the shelter's secured before we climb in for the night.
