Fresh tracks, Fresh ideas. That¿s what Backcountry Access (BCA) is all about. Backcountry Access is owned and run by dedicated backcountry skiers and snowboarders that live for fresh lines¿and are stoked to be part of the outdoor industry. Our passions are ski touring and innovation. We constantly strive to break new ground with our products and our ideas: we invented the first digital transceiver, the first integrated shovel and probe, and the first freezeproof hydration system. We also invented the concept of ¿knowledge leadership.¿ We believe knowledge and education are even more important than our products. That¿s why you¿ll see so much about this on our website.

Tracker DTS is the only digital beacon with real-time display. Distance and direction are shown instantly as the victim¿s transmit pulse is being sent. This provides faster, more precise pinpointing than delayed-display beacons. With real-time display the lowest distance reading is shown directly over the victim. With delayed display, the lowest reading is often well past the victim, especially if the searcher is moving fast. Probing and digging in the wrong place can decrease the chances of survival.
