Great rescue shovel

By Backcountry.com Employee December 9, 2008

Love this little shovel. It will fold down in a heart-beat, is lightweight yet durable enough to take a whack into some rock when cutting a rouche-block or other avi-testing activities. BUT, what I like most about this suck'a is that is has a square shaft. You don't have to fiddle around trying to lock the buttons into the holes like you do with the round shafts. It's a no-nonscence, simple functional design and is very quick to assemble and extend into a shovel. I haven't had to use this to rescue a friend yet, but when and if an avi reaks it's havoc on a buddy, I'd be able to have this thing out in a hurry once I tracked them down.
