More than just a simple grid snow card, the Brooks-Range Snow Crystal Card is recommended by the AIARE and designed to aid professionals with snow study, slope measurement, and snow stability tests. Etched with a fine grid, vital snow-study information, and sized to fit in a thigh pocket, this metal card fits easily in your field book and withstands the torture of backcountry travel season after season.
- 1mm, 2mm, and 3mm grids on both sides are laser-etched for precision, so you can get the most accurate snow-grain sizing
- Anondized flat black surface offers a degree of relief, minimal heat conduction (slows melting for easier observation) that keeps snow grains in place and makes visual identification easier
- Dimensions and nomenclature for Rutschbloc and compression tests are etched on the back, and snow crystal terminology on the front
- An attached string and weight allow you to use this card as a inclinometer with one-degree of resolution for accuracy
- Designed for avalanche professionals and serious backcountry travelers, this card holds the endorsement of the AIARE (American Institute for Avalanche Research and Education)
Bottom Line: The last grid card you'll ever need.
