The 26 oz. Brooks-Range Backcountry Shovel™ is the choice of professionals worldwide.

The heavy-duty hand D-grip can be used with mitts or gloves. The telescoping lightweight aluminum shaft gives this shovel a length of 31.5 inches to 44 inches, great for extra leverage in snowpack. The 15 x 10-inch bright yellow scoop made of premium tempered aluminum has convenient deadman holes for use as an emergency anchor. The 20-inch handle removes for use as stretcher bars with Brooks-Range Mountaineering Rescue Sled™.

What makes this Product Different than other Shovels?
