SHOVEL

Once you have located an avalanche victim, you want to dig the victim out as fast as possible to increase the chances of survival. Carry a sturdy collapsible shovel at all times in an avalanche area, and make sure that it is easily accessible.

AVALANCHE AIR BAG BACKPACK

When deployed during an avalanche, a pack increases chances of survival. The pack adds volume to your body, which helps you rise to the top of rolling debris.

BREATHING TUBE

A breathing tube is designed to maintain access to valuable oxygen when caught in snow. It draws air from other parts of the snowpack.
