How to use Trekking Poles
Review
Why the Black Diamond Alpine Carbon Cork?
Many viewers suggested that trekking poles would dramatically increase the number of miles I’d be able to rack up on a thru-hike and that they’d also greatly reduce strain on my body. I used to use a single Leki trekking pole for tough terrain, but it was time for an upgrade. So, I decided to take the plunge but I wanted some trekking poles which had a balance between strength and being lightweight while also having a comfortable grip. The Alpine Carbon Cork trekking poles offer the specs and features I was looking for.
How do they ride?
