trekking poles rock!
By runninggirl

I tried a pair of these for the first time on a grueling 42 mile hike with 12K of elevation gain. I had never used hiking poles before but I was so glad I had them. They helped me so much on the uphill and also when I was getting woozy and clumsy from altitude and fatigue. Waht's nice abou the Leki's is that hte inside webbing straps on the handles had a nice soft lining so my wrists didn't get all chafed.
