OregonDeadSo I need to make up my mind here.
In addition to the suggested K2 rescue shovel ...
Ortovox pro alu III
BCA RS EXT
Mammut Alugator Guide
are all in my price range look nice and have the hoe feature. Any others to check out?
CaseyI can't say hoe mode out loud without laughing
jKutcherI have the Black Diamond Evac 7. Absolutely love it. Hoe mode, comfortable D handle, and moves a lot of snow fast.

DingoSeanJust found out about the sawzaw blade attachment for the handle on the Evac 7. Gamechanger.
ATLskierWait, what? Any info?
DingoSeanAll the info you need is here. you just pull out the base of the handle and you can insert any sawzall blade. I'm going to get a foot long pruning blade or something. no more need to bring my snowsaw

ATLskierFuck yeah that's awesome. I can't believe they don't have that as a prominent feature in their product description. Thanks for sharing that. I'll def have to get one now, although I do love my BD saw too(way too expensive though)
DingoSeanI like my saw too, but cmon... now it has a d handle and added range! And I can optimize the teeth for the likely snow consolidation!
