Time matters during a rescue. When a life is on the line, wouldn't you want a tough mountaineering shovel? The Kodiak's 3.1 liter shovel volume with D grip handle quickly moves snow, but can easily pack into any Ortovox backpack. Its flat shovel blade with hardened aluminum cutting edge is sharpened to help you cut through hard snow. To keep your boot from slipping off mid-shovel, the upper edge is equipped with non-slip ridges to make sure your rescue is efficient as possible. The oval shaft is designed for greater rigidity and has a telescopic, non-slip rubberized surface to make your shoveling even faster. The D grip handle is considered the most ergonomic grip and aids powerful shoveling of snow. The frictional connection between the shaft and blade is virtually indestructible, saving critical seconds when used to save your companion’s life.
