Gear Review
kept me on my feet and off my backside
By Sheri
Ranked #333 - Trekking Poles
September 25, 2009
Being an old flatlander with a herniated disc which has altered my balance, I really appreciated the assistance these poles gave me while trying to summit Mount Elbert. They gave me the extra ummphf going up hill and the balance to stay on my feet coming down. I will never hike in the mountains again without them.
