"The Black Diamond AvaLung II may be the most important piece of life-saving equipment you can wear when traveling in avalanche terrain.While a beacon can be a great body locator device, the AvaLung II allows you to breathe fresh air directly from the sno"

From REI:
"AvaLung II™ is a remarkable filtration device that draws air directly from the snowpack, allowing you to breathe if trapped in an avalanche. Increases the surface area from which you breathe; air is pulled in by a mouthpiece attached directly to the apparatus. Exhaled carbon dioxide is directed out the exhaust tube to ensure fresh air supply and to prevent an ice layer which could seal off the oxygen supply. AvaLung II has repeatedly been shown to provide an air supply to buried test victims. Worn over your clothing, the lightweight sling does not impede breathability or add warmth, so it can be used in all weather conditions. User must be able to get the mouthpiece inserted before avalanche debris restricts movement; snowpack or injury can prevent its use. ."

From GearX.com:
"The Black Diamond AvaLung II is one of the most important developments in avalanche safety since the avalanche beacon."
