Highlights
Outing Highlights
A complete avalanche-package for five days
The rental consolidates the core tools any group must have in avalanche country: a pack to carry essentials, a shovel and probe for recovery, an avalanche transceiver for searching, and a radio for group communication.
Preparedness when minutes matter
Avalanche incidents are time-critical—having the right kit on-scene increases the chance of a successful rescue and is the core reason to rent standardized avalanche gear before heading into exposed terrain.
Group radios and transceivers for coordinated response
Beyond locating and digging, coordinated communication is essential. The inclusion of a radio alongside a beacon supports intra-group coordination during an incident and while navigating complex backcountry routes.
