The best selling avalanche shovel from BCA.
The
strong aluminium blade makes short work of shifting-snow with its
sharp edge and
large cross-section. Cutting through compact, frozen snow with ease, this shovel does the job it was built for in an emergency.
The Traverse EXT features an
ergonomic, oval shaped shaft which increases your digging strength, saving some of your precious energy. And the
T shaped grip makes this shovel suitable for left or right handers.
The
extendable length of the
tough, aluminium shaft gives you extra reach for
digging snow-study pits or
digging out your car when you get back from a hard day in the backcountry! However, when collapsed, the Traverse will fit into most packs making it great for
mountaineering,
off-piste skiers and
backcountry travellers.
A robust, lightweight avalanche shovel ideal for
snow safety or just
building a kicker with your mates.
