ARVA Avalanche Safety Kit Now Available in China
With the growing enthusiasm for backcountry and ski mountaineering in China, more and more people are discovering the allure of the mountains. At Altay Project, we are committed to supporting powder skiing in Altay and promoting safety as a core value, striving to foster a safer and more organized backcountry skiing experience.
As the saying goes, “To do a good job, one must first sharpen their tools.” The avalanche safety kit—comprising a transceiver, probe, and shovel—is an essential piece of equipment and vital protection for anyone venturing into the mountains.
However, due to the relatively late development of backcountry skiing in China, access to avalanche safety gear remains complicated, and reliable information about this category is still limited.
Altay Project is proud to offer the ARVA Avalanche Safety Kit as domestic stock, making professional-grade mountain safety equipment more accessible to Chinese backcountry enthusiasts.
