Ortovox X1 Avalanche Beacon

Item #ORT0013 | 0 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Standby Beacon

By Backcountry.com Alumni October 3, 2006

This beacon is easy to use and the dual mode is exactly what would be needed for a long range search. The analog signal gets you close and the digital signal with direction and distance locks you in quick ounce you get with in 10 meters. More importantly, my touring partners feel safe when we do beacon drills.
