Backcountry Access RS Shovel

Rescue shovel with hoe mode. Designed as a lighter weight hoe shovel option than our beefy D 2 EXT, the RS EXT has a heat treated neckless blade, rectangular shaft, and easy conversion to hoe mode. The shaft is extendable but collapses down into a very packable size. The smooth blade allows for shaving down clean snow pit walls and contains holes for use as a snow anchor.
