Everyone complains about the uphill part, but not you—you know that the real tricky part comes later, when you're trying to get back to a hot meal. The upshot of the Kelty Single Upslope 1. 0 Trekking Pole is that it will gladly assist in that descent. A lightweight yet sturdy aluminum shaft helps support the weight of you and your pack as you're headed down to a campfire dinner, while the non-slip carbide tip plants itself firmly into that rich soil for steady balance. Cork hand grips are padded with EVA foam for a comfortable experience, while a padded wrist strap keeps this pole by your side. Thanks to the easy adjustment option, you can change the length as needed, or lend it to a friend in need.
