Life-Link, Avalanche Transceiver - Pieps Opti-4 Don't even think about heading into the backcounty without a transceiver. Grab your Pieps, shovel, probe and pack, check the avi forcast, and if conditions permit, ski or ride your favorite shot. The Pieps Opti-4 has both audio and visual transmission and operates on the World Standard frequency. Maximize your experience, but calculate your risks |

Life-Link, Guide Pack Perfect for day-long touring when packing in a tent, sleeping bag and stove is not necessary. Designed to accommodate a shovel, snowboard or skis and mountaineering equipment for a day's worth of out-of-bounds frolicking. Why pay for a ticket when you get better skiing, more exercise, and no crowds in the backcountry |

Life-Link, Pro Snow Study Kit If you are going on a multi-day tour, chances are you will not have access to an avi forecast each day. Furthermore, snow is a dynamic element, and conditions can change hourly. Learn how to read slope angle, snow crystalization and snow temperature, and then buy the Snow Study Kit. If you are left guessing when the conditions are questionable, you're probably in over your head. As one Alta patroller remarked, 'What do I think about a moderate avalanche danger? Well, I would not walk into a bar if I had a moderate chance of being shot.' Good advice! |
