It may sound crazy, being trapped under three feet of avalanche snow does happen, and with the K2 Carbon Probe 300 you can increase the victim’s survival by tenfold. The K2 Carbon Probe 300 weighs less than 300 grams, yet it can stand tall against the best Mother Nature can throw at it. Usually a probe will be used for collecting snow-pit data, and for those uses a flexible, heavy, and flimsy one would do justice. But when emergencies do happen, you'll need a stronger, more reliable probe to locate the victim fast and efficiently. With the K2 Carbon Probe 300, you'll realize why it’s better to be safe than sorry.
