Italian to English translations [PRO]
Sports / Fitness / Recreation / Program for a skiing excursion
Italian term or phrase: sonda
Evidently, this is a device used to probe the snow in case of avalanche, but I'm not entirely sure.

Anyway, here's the context:

Attrezzatura: sci da scialpinismo con pelli di foca e bastoncini, Arva, pala, sonda e abbigliamento adeguato

"Feeler" sounds wrong. Does anybody know?

Thanks.
