This will be the first season for my gf in the mountains, avy courses are booked for January and flame away all you want we are going prior to that, which beacon is the most affordable yet easy to use, possibly a full pack shovel probe beacon kit as we will need that regardless, I run the ortovox +3 digital and it's been easy to use when we practice with them although the 3m mark is wonky and a known issue for this model. Not going to sit here and say we don't ride avy potential areas as we all know you can't classify that in the back country but we will be sticking to the lower risk areas until trained up although I'd be a liar to say without her and with the guys we don't tear all over. Biggest concern is ease of use for this purchase then cost, my ortovox I got on YouTube and found an English walk through and that would be nice with say a tracker or pieps model for her thanks for any input
