Sweet Poles

A reliable, light, versatile pole for backcountry adventures. Made of featherlite carbon, The Guide pole has multiple uses, functioning as an avalanche probe as well as ski pole, and collapsing down for ultimate storage and packability. I really like the telescopic adjustment system, as it is quick and easy. Other +s include a wide, adjustable comfort pole strap and the ultra lite foam wrapped, insulated, absorbing grip. It includes powder & trekking baskets, and in total weighs a mere 17oz per pair. The pole has functioned great for me from big snow days at Silverton Mtn, to bump skiing in Telluride, and is ideal for long backcountry tours.
