Black Diamond Trail Back Trekking Pole

Item #BLD1384 | 57 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Maybe I got a bad pair?

By Ranked #90 - Trekking Poles November 23, 2011

So I love these poles. They made it through Havasu Canyon, the Zion Narrows, all over Tetons/Yellowstone, and the White Mountains in NH. Until last week, when one inexplicably broke in half. Thanks to Black Diamond's warranty and Backcountry's service, though, I got another pair. Hopefully the break was a fluke, as they seem rock-solid otherwise (as all the other reviews seem to attest!).
