Good poles
By James Sanders

I tried these to see if I was ready for trekking poles, I'm not. But, if I were in the need for poles these would be the ones. They're strong, light and easy to strap to your pack when you want your hands free. If I were doing a hike with more water crossings these would be the ones.
