Cascade Mountain Tech Aluminum Adjustable Trekking Poles - Lightweight Quick Lock Walking Or Hiking Stick - 1 Set (2 Poles)

Having previously borrowed trekking poles from a friend, I knew that these would be very helpful on the trails I was planning to hike. But I pulled them out of the package and went to use them right away without reading instructions. Well, they kept collapsing on me. What I needed to do was tighten the nuts on the clips so that the clips would hold and keep the telescoped poles from collapsing. I struggled on the trail until I pulled out my car key and used the tip as a screwdriver to tighten the nuts. One good tightening and I was good for the rest of the trip. Moral of the story: read directions! But in all seriousness, I had to rely heavily on these poles and they served me very well on the trail. They gave me added strength and stability going up and down over rocks, boulders, stairs, and inclines. The poles are lightweight, easy to use, and they come in a travel pouch with all of the extra tips. Trekking poles are a great tool that will enhance your hiking experience, and this is a quality set at a very good price.

Good quality trekking pole with interchangeable tips. Strong construction and versatile

for the price compared to other big name brands, these are excellent. They're great quality, look good, have many attachments for different terrains (snow, mud, rocks, sand...) have their own bag, cork handles, easily adjustable and very sturdy when locked, the wrist straps are comfortable too. They have it all. I got some expensive BD trekking poles and I find myself using these more. Easy 5 stars.

Supper love it!! thanks

Bought these poles a couple months before my 8 day hike on the West Coast Trail in BC, they took me through some of the toughest terrain I've ever hiked through and survived whatever I threw at them. I'm a tall person with a larger build and had a 40 to 45 lbs pack on, so the poles supported me fine with all that weight. They saved my life a few times as I used them to keep from tumbling down a steep edge. Great product! I managed to also get them wedged in roots or boardwalk and they flexed as I got stuck in mid step, never warped or bent. I have a bit of sand in them now so they are a bit harder to slide out to desired height, but I think you can slip the sections out and wash them so they work smoothly.
