This avalanche safety kit from Arva is a compact rescue pack that’s light in the backpack and effective in the field, for a wide audience who wants to rediscover the mountains. 

What’s in the kit?

• Arva Evo5+ Beacon:

The EVO5+ capitalizes on Arva’s 35-year expertise to fit in the palm of your hand. 

Arva’s R&D team pushed the size/performance ratio past the edge of the envelope to create a device that fits perfectly in your jacket pocket. 

With a 50m search stripwidth, group check, marking function, and an automatic revert-to-transmit mode, the EVO5+ is jam-packed with all of the essential functions needed to rescue an avalanche victim. 

Equipped with a backlit screen and speaker that emits a precise, modulated beep, this transceiver will efficiently and effectively guide you to the burial zone.

The Evo5+ has new software and a locking slider in the "off" position to keep the beacon from accidentally being turned on when not in use.

• Three antennas keep you headed in the right direction, no matter the beacon orientation or model.
• A Group Check feature streamlines trailhead checks
• Auto-revert (AR) keeps rescuers safe in the event of secondary burial and can be customized in settings to fit your preferences.
• A single AA battery (23g) saves weight
• Manages signal interference (don't ask how, all we know is that it works really well).
• Mark (multi-burial) function

• Evo5+ Holster:

The EVO5+ holster has been designed to allow optimal use of the device. The EVO5+ connection cord with a carabiner allows the user to attach the device to the holster easily. The waist strap can be disconnected from the holster and transformed into a belt. *This item is also compatible with EVO5.
