Compact 240 cm avalanche probe with fast telescopic lock and a short packed length that fits easily into smaller touring packs.
The Mammut Probe 240 Short is a stable, lightweight avalanche probe designed to be quick to assemble, easy to use, and compact to store when you are moving through the backcountry. High-quality aluminium segments and a durable tensioning cord give the probe a solid, confidence-inspiring feel in dense debris, while the telescopic locking system and ergonomic, glove-friendly handle let you snap it tight quickly and reliably. A drop-shaped probe tip penetrates compact avalanche snow efficiently, saving energy as you search, and the updated visual depth guide along the shaft gives you clear burial depth information at a glance to help plan your digging. Measuring just 38 cm when collapsed and 240 cm when extended, it packs down small for ski touring and freeride packs, and comes with a dedicated cover that includes an integrated emergency plan for on-the-spot reference.
