Designed for avalanche safety professionals and serious backcountry enthusiasts, the Black Diamond Snow Saw Guide is a purpose built saw designed for snowpack studies. This saw is barely noticeable in your pack at only 160 gram with the included pit cord to easily perform extended column tests. The teeth on the Snow Saw Guide are also purposefully designed to cut through hard snow. The Snow Saw Guide includes everything needed to hop in a pit and start making assessments.
