Backcountry Access Carbon 260 Avalanche Probe

Item #BCA0085 | 158 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Light & Long, plus Metal Cord

By Ranked #126 - Avalanche Safety August 29, 2009

Very light, sufficiently long, sufficiently stiff, and assembles with a single pull. Moreover, has a metal tensioning cord, which is probably a plus for long-term durability.
(Picture is of me -- at far right -- using the probe in a snowpit at any avy course I was teaching.)
