Strategic Shoveling
Shoveling might sound elementary but it`s the next frontier in decreasing avalanche rescue times. Shoveling takes the majority of time in avalanche rescue. For information on how to organize and excavate efficiently, download this handout.

|
The excavation process is the true crux of every avalanche rescue. Time lost or gained can directly determine life versus death. At BCA, we have developed both the technology and the training necessary to get the job done better. Based on a foundation of bombproof aluminum and a rigid oval shaft, we’ve created the most efficient human powered digging device known to man. Our off–the–charts strength–to–weight ratio ensures you waste no valuable seconds when a life is a stake.
