I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Description

Why We Like The Evac 9 Shovel

Whether you need to move snow in a hurry or dig out a perfect pit, the Black Diamond Evac 9 Shovel will get the job done. We specifically like the hoe mode that helps us move snow quickly and efficiently, plus this model is just a little larger than the Evac 7 to help you dig pits quickly.

Details

A multi-function tool that's vital for backcountry safety. The aluminum blade and shaft provide reliable durability. The telescoping handle adjusts the length quickly for convenience. The dual-density grip won't slip while you're working. It also converts into hoe mode for quick digging on steep slopes. The flat-bottom profile is ideal for digging square snow pits.
