Snow sticks to shovel
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
The shovel feels sturdy and well made, assembles easily, and fits into my pack well. However, for whatever reason, snow builds up on the shovel whenever I use it, turning it into more of a plank than a shovel. The snow build up impedes the functionality of the shovel so much that I have to constantly stop and forcefully scrape snow out of the shovel itself. It may be a quality of the Sierra cement, but since that's where I live it's an undesirable combination. I'm glad I learned this while digging pits and not while desperately digging a person out of an avalanche.
