Trekking Poles

[Jape]

Black diamond and Leki with the flick lock style have always been great for me. Go with aluminum rather than carbon fiber.

I did learn that when you are snow-shoeing last winter and fall on the pole and bend it a bit, it no longer collapses all the way. No big deal, it goes in the truck when not used. However fast forward to elk season and it no longer nicely fits on the backpack and catches on any branch I go under :-(

I have black diamonds and they usually come a little loose... they usually just need a little tightening, make sure to tighten when the quick clip is open. Takes a little fine tuning but should get it done.

Did said fine tuning today before my hike - first trip I have taken out on that canyon walk that one didn't get shorter than the other. All appears to be good.
