Backcountry Access Dozer 3D Avalanche Shovel - 2026

$119.99

Our Dozer 3D shovel is the largest in our shovel line and designed for users who need to move large amounts of snow. Heck, it's also a great product to clear the sidewalk or keep in the back of your vehicle.

NOTE: Does not fit in shovel compartment of BCA Float™ or Stash packs.

Our ovo-concave shovel shaft is the first of its kind, designed to prevent breakage while prying. Inspired by our legendary D-2 EXT “Dozer” shovel, we’ve taken our groundbreaking oval design and added a concave radius on both sides to make it even stronger, without adding weight. Like a high-end lacrosse stick, this shape also enables better grip in the palm, reducing slippage while shoveling. All BCA extendable models are designed to meet the UIAA standard for avalanche rescue shovels.
