The BCA Tracker4 package covers the basics with the Stealth 300 probe, the Dozer 1T shovel, and the Tracker4 beacon.
The leaves are turning, which means it’s time to start getting your backcountry gear for the coming winter season. Whether you’re new to avalanche terrain or a seasoned veteran searching for an AVY tool overhaul, the T4 Avalanche Rescue Package is an excellent choice for winter 2023/24.
The Tracker4 boasts robust durability and sports an easily grippable rubberized overmolded case and a big new display. This transceiver also features Signal Suppression (SS) and Big Picture (BP) modes for no-nonsense multiple-victim searching. Motion-sensing auto revert-to-transmit mode (AR). Plus, a Mini USB port for downloadable software updates.
The Stealth 300 Probe features dual-sized depth markings that are easy to see when performing a rescue or logging a snow profile. Pro-level aluminum models are laser-etched to prevent wear. The Stealth Quick-Lock hardware creates a smaller bundle when folded up and eliminates loose cables that can whip you in the face when you’re furiously probing.
The Dozer 1T shovel sports an ovo-concave shaft, a low-profile stompable blade, and a cored-out handle making this shovel stronger, lighter, and more packable.
