    Ryan Harris, Mountain Guide and Ski Patroller

    I use this probe becuase of the durability, in some probes I find that the inserts of each section get chipped on the edges, and slowly becomes a liability when deploying the probe. the measurement marks slowly fade away after use

    Long enough for the deep PNW snowpack.

    Ross Kennedy, Snowcat Ski Guide

    Mammut's Speed Lock Probes have served me well since starting ski touring. I recommend a 300cm+ probe so that it is effective in all snowpacks.
