Ranked #44 - Avalanche Beacons
August 29, 2009
Spending the extra $100 on this version doesn't seem to make any sense. I like to keep my barometric altimeter on my wristwatch, my compass on my sighting-mirror magnetic unit, and my thermometer in my snowpit kit. Constantly taking out my avalanche beacon to reference navigational functions has no appeal to me, and even strikes me as potentially dangerous (e.g., if a slide were to hit as the beacon were dangling about outside its harness).
