Backcountry Access Tracker 3+ Avalanche Beacon

The device features a dedicated signal suppression mode that allows you to isolate and suppress the strongest signal, letting you focus on locating the next transmitter without interference. It also includes a 'Big Picture' mode that provides a wider view of the search area, which is essential for managing complex, multi-victim situations.

This is a critical safety backup. If the beacon detects no movement for a set period—suggesting you may have been caught in a secondary avalanche or are incapacitated—it will automatically switch from search mode back to transmit mode so rescuers can find you.

Yes, the Tracker 3+ is designed for intuitive, rapid operation, which is ideal for those who need a device that is easy to use under stress. Its real-time display provides immediate feedback, helping you navigate search environments with confidence without requiring advanced technical expertise.

At 164 grams, it is quite compact and low-profile, making it easy to carry in a pocket or harness without feeling bulky. It is specifically engineered to be unobtrusive while you are touring, so it won't interfere with your movement.

The Tracker 3+ has a maximum range of 50 meters and a search strip width of 55 meters. This range is standard for modern 3-antenna beacons and provides a reliable balance between search efficiency and signal processing speed.

It runs on 3 AAA alkaline batteries. It is important to always use high-quality alkaline batteries and avoid using lithium or rechargeable batteries, as they can affect the device's battery life indicators and performance.
