16 € /day Avy kit (Beacon, Probe and Shovel)

Backcountry travel in the mountains involves risk, like many enjoyable things in life. If you are skiing on or below slopes steeper than 25°, you risk being caught by an avalanche. But just as there are things we can do to reduce the risk of vehicle crashes, there are things we can do to reduce the risk of getting caught, injured, and perhaps killed by avalanches while traveling in the mountains.
