Alugator Light Shovel
As the lightest shovel in Mammut's line, the Alugator Light Shovel is ideal for backcountry travelers who want to shave every ounce from their kit without compromising reliable function. The sharpened aluminum blade is tilt-proof and strong, and features attachment holes that can be used to construct a snow anchor or rescue sled. You'll appreciate the blade's straight back when you're shaving the walls of your snowpit to get an accurate snow profile. The telescoping handle is easy to adjust so you can optimize your digging efficiency, and collapses into a compact package to easily fit, along with the blade, in a small daypack.

It balances size and weight well. It’s not the bigger blade, but it’s big enough and packs well.

Light, packs well, cuts through crust well. Doesn't move as much snow as heavier larger and more ergonomic shovels but that is the trade you are getting with a light shovel. Good mount points for a snow anchor. Easy and fast to deploy but the spring buttons have a tendency to ice up after extended use such as digging a pit and require some finagling to detach the shovel head from the shaft after use.

Amazing tool for the money!
This shovel is an auto-include for any snow excursion. Lightweight and compact, it fits great lashed onto any pack or outer pocket, and feels sturdy when fully expanded. I have even used it to dig my car out after a snow storm. The ONLY complaint I have is that the handle is just a touch short (you also can't side on this shovel like a sled if that's something that's important to you). If you're looking a great snow shovel to take with you or keep in your car, look no further!

Very lightweight touring shovel. Cuts well through hard pack and ice. Otherwise I don't have much to say, its a strong light shovel.

Great lightweight shovel!
Easy to pack in even a smaller bag, cuts blocks of snow and shovels facets equally well.
