Product Info for BACKCOUNTRY ACCESS Dozer 3D Gray Shovel C2116006010
The BACKCOUNTRY ACCESS Dozer 3D Shovel is BCA's largest blade size working shovel and features a D-grip handle for industrial use. It is ideal for building huge kickers and moving huge volumes of snow.
All of BCA's new Dozer shovels feature ovo-concave shafts and low-profile, "stompable" blades. The front third of the shovel blade offers a smooth surface for clean snowpit walls during snow stability tests. With BCA's flat "stomp edge" on the blade, you can penetrate just about anything by adding body weight.
Auto-engaging spring pins at the blade/shaft connection make for faster, hands-free assembly/deployment. BCA shovels lie flat in your pack with no protruding ferrule or "neck," leaving more room for other backcountry gear. All BCA extendable shovels are designed to meet the UIAA standard for avalanche rescue shovels.
NOTE: The Dozer 3D avalanche shovel does not fit in the shovel compartment of BCA Float or Stash packs.
