This unique snow shovel is lightweight and durable; the flexible SnowClaw can be folded or rolled up to fit in or on any pack.

  • Two side handles make the SnowClaw shovel an easily manageable tool
  • Incredibly tough high-impact copolymer is very flexible but transforms into a rigged tool by slightly squeezing the handles together in a "U" shape
  • Multi-functional design can also be used as a snow anchor, plate, sled or emergency splint
  • Ultra-durable material remains pliable and crack resistant to -20°

Imported.

        Comments about Snow Claw SnowClaw Guide Snow Shovel:

        I bought a few of these for winter camping and traveling last year. Everyone likes them as a great BACKUP tool that is lightweight and easy to carry; in particular, they are great for working inside a snow cave. Keep in mind, they are NOT a shovel substitute! (but they work MUCH BETTER than a snowshoe tail for digging!)

        I recommend them as a personal piece of gear to back up a shovel or two in a party, and will start carrying them next to the chains in my truck.

        Best Uses

        • Moderate ski touring

        Comments about Snow Claw SnowClaw Guide Snow Shovel:

        This is just what I needed for moderate ski touring on trails with little avalanche danger. I wanted something like a shovel for emergency shelter making but was reluctant to buy a shovel. This will be perfect for making lunch shelters as well.

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

        Nice product, no substitute for a shovel

        Pros

        • Fits in backpack easily
        • Lightweight
        • Versatile
        • Weather Resistant

        Cons

        • Flimsy
        • Very little leverage

        Best Uses

        • Light snow removal

        Comments about Snow Claw SnowClaw Guide Snow Shovel:

        This product is good for a lightweight snow mover, when a traditional shovel is not necessary. This is NOT a substitute for a metal shovel. If there is ANY danger of avalanche or heavy, compacted, hard snow then the Snow Claw will not do the job. Makes a good seat on snow in a pinch.

        Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
