This thing is a plow not a shovel!

This shovel is great. I got it because wanted a shovel with a huge blade and a ton of extension. It definitely covers both those needs. It moves a ton of snow fast, it's strong, and the extra extension is great for your back. I would definitely recommend something else if you travel light or are just riding resort slackcountry. If you don't care about the weight or height in your pack and want a rugged shovel that will dig your buddy out fast, this is for you.
