BCA Dozer™ 1T Avalanche Shovel 2026

The Dozer 1T is our lightweight, workhorse shovel for those looking to save some weight and space. Strong, light, and packable with an ovo-concave shaft, low profile stompable blade, and cored out handle.

Our ovo-concave shovel shaft is the first of its kind, designed to prevent breakage while prying. Inspired by our legendary D-2 EXT “Dozer” shovel, we’ve taken our groundbreaking oval design and added a concave radius on both sides to make it even stronger, without adding weight. Like a high-end lacrosse stick, this shape also enables better grip in the palm, reducing slippage while shoveling. All BCA extendable models are designed to meet the UIAA standard for avalanche rescue shovels.
