Camp's Piz Aluminum Ski Pole is one of the few poles out there specifically for ski mountaineering. There's bound to be icy traverses across sharp ridgelines, and we rely on the Piz's robust durability and ice-specific grip to get us across smoothly. We appreciate the carbide tip's extra bite into icy terrain, and the extended grip lets us choke down on the pole when we're bootpacking up frozen snow delicately.
