As someone who lives in Interior Alaska, I feel your pain.

So, to take a cue from you and one from another comment on here: Wouldn't it be great to have a shovel that 1.) Had "wings" on it, similar to a snowplow, that you could fold out to widen the shovel, and fold in to make the shovel narrow, while also making it stronger for chipping ice. and 2.) That you could adjust the angle of the head on for digging vs. lifting vs. picking.

I'd buy it.
