The Best Snow Shovels 2022
Ortovox Shovel Kodiak Courtesy Image

True Temper 18-Inch Poly Combo Snow Shovel Lightweight, ergonomic, and durable, this top-rated snow shovel from True Temper won’t disappoint.

BustR Snow Shovel Courtesy Image 4. BustR Snow Shovel This isn’t your average plastic shovel. The BustR lives up to its name thanks to its extra-tough design: a galvanized steel plate fitted to a durable 18-inch polyethylene blade.

DMOS Stealth Shovel Courtesy Image 7. DMOS Stealth Shovel Take the fight to ice and snow with the versatile Stealth Shovel from DMOS. This fully collapsible shovel (it can fit inside a backpack) is made from double-thickness aircraft-grade aluminum for excellent strength without the weight, and the blade features serrated teeth—perfect for chopping and breaking up packed snow and ice. [$149; dmoscollective.com] Get it
Garant Sleigh Shovel Courtesy Image 8. Garant Sleigh Shovel Get the job done faster with this unique sleigh shovel from Garant.

[$60; acehardware.com] Get it
The Snowplow Courtesy Image 9. The Snowplow Because it pushes rather than scoops, the Snowplow can’t clear deep powder, but for scraping up thin layers of wintry mix, the tough polyethylene blade makes short work of sidewalks, walkways, and porches. [$43; jmenterprises.com] Get it
The Snowcaster 36-Inch Wheeled Snow Pusher Courtesy Image 10. The Snowcaster 36-Inch Wheeled Snow Pusher If the snow isn’t too deep, reach for the Snowcaster—a 36-inch snow pusher on wheels. It features durable construction and a bi-directional angled blade that helps you clear your driveway, sidewalk, or patio with minimal time and effort (no lifting required). [$137; amazon.com] Get it
Mammut Alugator Pro Light Hoe Courtesy Image 11. Mammut Alugator Pro Light Hoe Lightweight, durable, and versatile, the Mammut Alugator Pro Light is an excellent addition to your backcountry safety kit.

It even comes with holes to attach a snow anchor or rescue sled, too. [$110; mammut.com] Get it
