The Dozer 2H Shovel from Backcountry Access is a dual-mode beast of an avalanche rescue and snow study tool, functioning as either a traditional, T-grip shovel or a hyper-efficient “snow hoe” depending on how you attach the blade to the extendable shaft. BCA’s simple-yet-bombproof design philosophy holds true with this durable and intuitive shovel made to move snow as quickly as possible in both emergency and practice scenarios. The low-profile blade fits comfortably in just about any pack and features a flatter face than previous models to keep those pit wall profiles smooth and easy to read. If versatility and speed are important features in your avalanche rescue and snow study kit (they should be), the Dozer 2H Shovel from Backcountry Access is a tool you’ll want to check out.
