Backcountry Access Companion Shovel EXT

Description

Save weight. Save lives.

History shows that in real avalanches, aluminum is far superior to plastic. That's why BCA only makes aluminum shovels with oval shafts, for maximum strength. This season, they've made their shovels even lighter and better liiking that ever, without losing any of their famous strength.

The Chugah Pro Shovel is BCA's biggest, baddest digging machine.
