Pieps Freeride Avalanche Beacon

Backcountry gurus often hail Pieps as maker of the finest avalanche beacons available, and it seems they ve outdone themselves yet again this year with the Pieps Freeride Avalanche Beacon. The Freeride Beacon s streamlined design may be no larger than your cell phone, but even if you have Tetris on your cell phone, this is way cooler. A simple arrow and distance meter guide you in the direction of your buried compadres, guiding you to victims one at a time in the event of multiple burials. And weighing in at a mere 110 grams including its single AA battery, you ll hardly know it s there until, of course, it saves someone s life. Use the Freeride Beacon with Pieps digital iProbe (sold separately) for the fastest and most efficient search system available.
