If snow study is your gig, or you just want some extra assistance on your next tour, the Backcountry Access Companion Shovel System makes things easier all around. Innovative quick-reference rescue infographics printed directly on the oversized blade make location and excavation strategy clear in adrenaline-overdrive crisis situations. Whether you're new to snow study, or a veteran backcountry touriste, the flat, squared-off blade will optimize your shovel shear and compression tests. The included Companion Probe fits neatly inside both the collapsible and fixed-length shovel handles, as a lightweight probe or a great backup if your full-size probe should break or get lost. Regardless of your avalanche experience, the Companion Shovel system is a solid performer with advantages for every user, and well worth the extra ounces.
Bottom Line: The best thing to have in the backcountry is a reliable Companion.
