Mammut Barryvox Tour Package
Mammut Barryvox Tour Package, Earning your turns comes at a hefty cost when your life is on the line, especially after a heavy storm when snowpack stability is touchy to say the least. Even if you pick conservative terrain, analyze stability, and practice rescue techniques on a regular basis, you're still hedging your bets that the proverbial house of cards won't come tumbling down. The Mammut Barryvox Tour Package gives you the means to rescue fellow skiers and riders, as well as help others locate you underneath an avalanche debris field, should things go horribly wrong on a backcountry tour.
The Barryvox Package includes a Barryvox Beacon, Alugator Ride Shovel, and Probe 280, making it a complete package intended for locating buried victims, emitting a life-saving signal if you're buried, and digging snow pits to assess stability. The Alugator Ride Shovel easily collapses and maximizes digging strength with its hardened aluminum blade. Furthermore, the Probe 280 extends to 7.9 feet for locating victims under the snow and collapses down to only 1.5 feet in your pack.
The Barryvox Beacon is one of the most popular on the market, and for good reason, thanks to its digital 3-antenna design with a 70-meter search strip for quickly locating buried victims. It's intuitive to use with an easy-to-read display that shows distance, direction, and victim number. The ergonomic design of the beacon features large buttons that work with gloves on. Multiple burial processing comes in handy for situations where there's numerous skiers and riders underneath the avalanche debris field, with a large flagging button for marking each victim's location. Another useful feature is the automatic switching between search to send after four minutes of inactivity, as it assumes a secondary avalanche has buried you.Touring package includes beacon, probe, and shovel for backcountryDigital 3-antenna Barryvox beacon with 70m search stripIntuitive display shows distance, direction, victim numberMultiple burial processing with large flagging buttonAuto switches from search to send after 4 min inactivityErgonomic design is easily used with gloves onGroup and self tests with instructionsBarryvox carry system includedBeacon AntennatripleBeacon Range - Digital70mBeacon Battery Type3 AAABeacon Battery Life300hr in send modeBeacon Weight7.5ozShovel Blade MaterialaluminumShovel Blade Dimensions27.5 x 21.5cmShovel Length - Assembled86cmShovel Length - Packed44cmExtendable Shovel HandleyesShovel Weight1lb 8ozProbe Materialaluminum (11mm)Probe Length280cmProbe Packable Length45cmProbe Storage Sackcover with integrated emergency planProbe Weight9ozRecommended Usebackcountry touringManufacturer Warranty2 years
