Gear Guide
A great resource on the CAC web site to help you better understand gear and what you need, don't need and when to toss your avy ball,.... "avy what?"
AVY BALL
Spring loaded ball that packs flat but expands to about the size of a soccer ball when deployed. It’s attached to your pack with a 3m cord. The idea is that the light ball remains on the surface so rescuers can quickly follow the cord to the buried person.
