The Dozer 2D is BCA's mid-sized avalanche shovel for pros and advanced backcountry aficianados, loaded with features like a larger blade and a longer extended length than it's little brother, the Dozer 1T. Of course, the "2D" tells the real story, as this Dozer comes with a D-grip handle for more control and comfort, especially if you're sporting mittens or lobster gloves.

The Dozer line features ovo-concave shafts and low-profile, "stompable" blades. The front third of the shovel blade offers a smooth surface for clean snowpit walls during snow stability tests. With BCA's flat "stomp edge" on the blade, you can penetrate just about anything by adding body weight. Auto-engaging spring pins at the blade/shaft connection make for faster, hands-free assembly/deployment.
