Mil-Tec Foldable Snow/Sand Shovel

Folding shovel crafted as a rescue tool for swift snow excavation, for example, following an avalanche. It is useful not only for mountain rescue missions but also as gear for any services providing medical assistance under challenging conditions.

During the winter, it proves useful for setting up a campsite or constructing a ski and snowboard hill. Its foldable design ensures minimal space usage, making it essential in winter for both cars (escaping snowdrifts) and backpacks on mountain trips (can be stored inside or secured outside the backpack).

The shovel breaks down into three components: a broad aluminum blade, a shaft, and a polypropylene handle. The shaft's length is adjustable, lockable in three positions thanks to a plug socket.

Crafted from a lightweight and robust aluminum alloy, the blade offers a large working area and a sculpted design for efficient snow removal. Blade holes facilitate work in compact snow, act as an anchor, or serve as a small transport sled. Its bright orange color coating enhances visibility in snow.

The T-shaped handle is composed of polypropylene, which keeps hands or gloves from freezing.

Included is a nylon carrying pouch with Velcro closure. This bag contains compartments for each shovel component and a convenient handle for carrying.
