DESCRIPTION

Compact and constructed with a super-strong oval-shaped shaft, the Backcountry Companion Shovel makes digging a cinch when lives are on the line. Tough aluminum chops through rock-hard avalanche debris and shrugs off abuse when you're digging pits through variable snow. Rather than being tempted to leave a longer shovel behind in the truck, reach for the Access Companion shovel and you'll hardly notice this rig until you absolutely need it.
