I have been looking at getting a pair of Walking/Trekking poles.
Been doing some reading and it all seems very positive, and should prove to be a worthwhile purchase.
There certainly seems to be more plus points than negative.
I had a spinal fusion operation a couple of years ago, so the extra support and security of the poles, will help while moving over slippery or uneven terrain.
They offer good support for the knees, posture, and aid load carrying as well.
Especially helpful on gradients, going up, or down.
Not to mention using them to erect a lightweight tarp shelter.
Any one else using poles out there, what are your thoughts, and what poles do you have?
