PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Black Diamond Transfer 3 Shovel combines a small size, low weight, and idiot-proof design for demanding backcountry fanatics. What sets the Transfer 3 apart from other avalanche shovels is its trapezoidal shaft. This Black Diamond shovel's shape ensures no rotation during setup, so it goes together fast and easy. In addition, the low 1lb 7oz weight puts a smile on the faces of alpine climbers and backcountry skiers alike.
Bottom line
Avalanche shovels need to be solid, light, and simple—just like the Black Diamond Transfer 3 Shovel.
Product Reviews
Great Shovel
I used this shovel when hiking Tuckermans Ravine, it was a great first shovel for me, it does the job, very small, lightweight, and easy and quick to assemble. Great for the money
Serves its purpose
I am writing a review for this avy shovel, but it's October... I obviously haven't used it yet. Here's my impressions based on holding it... It's very light and seems strong, to be expected with aluminum and a good manufacturer. The size is perfect for general purpose use. Big enough to move snow when you want to, but small enough to fit any day pack. If you plan to be doing LOTS of digging get something larger. The strangely shaped handle concerns me though... The T-grip looks great, but the handle which is shaped something like this: / looks like it might become uncomfortable after 20 minutes of digging. I'll find out when we try it out this winter. Happy shopping.
