Head out prepared with the Nivia 3D Finder Avalanche Beacon Package
The Nivia 3D Finder Avalanche Beacon Package rounds out the beacon's GPS-guided search with the two tools a rescue actually finishes on: a 280cm aluminum probe and a telescoping aluminum shovel. Search leads to a direct route toward a buried signal, the probe confirms the exact spot once close, and the shovel clears snow fast enough to matter. Everything in this kit is built to leave together in the same pack and come out together when it counts.
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I grabbed this kit specifically so I wouldn't have to mix and match a probe and shovel from three different brands before a tour. The shovel telescopes down small enough that it disappears in my pack, and the probe folds to under 18 inches, so nothing about carrying the full kit ever feels like a compromise."

Nivia
3D Finder
Straight-Line Rescue Routing
Inside The 3D Finder
3D Coordinate System
The 3D finder generates its own localized coordinate system and calculates the buried victim's exact position inside it. A point rather than a bearing means no cross-searching and no bracketing, and lab data puts the search at up to 30% faster.
Rechargeable Cells
A lithium-ion cell runs up to 300 hours on one charge and refills over the same USB-C cable as a phone. Topping up before a tour is the same habit as charging any other piece of kit you carry.
Emergency Phone Power
A dead phone can draw charge straight from the beacon, enough to place a call for help. Phone charging stops once the beacon drops to 60% and will not start below it, so there is always enough to search.
Universal Beacon Compatibility
The 3D finder transmits on 457 kHz, the international standard, so any beacon on the mountain can find it. A 70-meter search strip width, measured to ICAR AVA REC 0007, covers a debris field in fewer passes.
One-Button Control
One red button handles marking in a multiple burial, group checks at the trailhead, and initial setup. Marking a second burial takes the same press as the first, so the sequence holds as the search gets harder.
Engineered To Find Faster
Nivia is a brand of Rosenberger Hochfrequenztechnik, a German radio-frequency engineering firm, created to bring that signal expertise to avalanche rescue. Instead of refining the classic beacon search, the brand rethinks it entirely, so the gear stays intuitive when the pressure is highest.
