A multi-function tool for comprehensive backcountry use, the Evac 9 Shovel by BLACK DIAMOND is a pro-grade shovel and features two configurations: standard shovel and hoe mode.

A top-of-the-line shovel built for professional use, the Evac 9 by BLACK DIAMOND features a unique handle that can be set up in in both standard shovel and hoe mode for digging #C02 pits or rapid snow removal.

The large blade moves lots of snow quickly, and a flat-bottom profile helps you get a good clean face on your pit wall. The updated, extendable shaft eliminates the possibility of jamming in the field while the modified large D handle increases comfort for long days involving multiple pits and speeds up digging time during an emergency.
