Black Diamond FlickLock Expedition Poles - 1 Pair
Great multiple use poles
By Fred Caloggero
Ranked #265 - Backcountry Ski Poles
November 2, 2009
I've used these poles in multiple backcountry excursions, casual snow hiking, and even for expedition trekking. I've been extremely happy with them in every instance. They are lightweight and very easy/convenient to store. The flicklock adjusters are great and have held up for me. I have absolutely nothing bad to say about the poles themselves, but just be careful with the protective rubber tips, as they don't stay on (I had to tape mine on for trekking use).
