Makalu Cork Lite
$149.95
Description

  The Leki Makalu Cork Lite will help make your next outdoor adventure your best yet. The Makalu Cork Lite comes with the newly developed Aergon Air grip, made with genuine cork. Cork absorbs moisture from sweaty or wet hands, decreases vibration, and best conforms to the shape of your palms. Special hollow core technology combines lightweight construction with a supportive grip for unparalleled ergonomic comfort for your hands. The back of the Aergon Air grip is rubberized providing maximum grip when going downhill.

  The Makalu Cork Lite provides the ultimate tool for comfortable and secure outings. The built-in positive angle supports your wrist for optimal guidance and placement of the pole. With its slim tube diameter, the Makalu Cork Lite has a weight of only 254 g (9 oz) per pole and is infinitely adjustable from 110 to 130 cm using the durable and time-tested Speed Lock Plus lever system. This collapsible and durable 3-section pole is crafted from HTS 6.5 aluminum, providing exceptional durability and dependability no matter where your next adventure takes you.

  Sold as a pair.

Go Faster and Farther With These Road and Gravel E-Bikes
  What makes for a great road and gravel e-bike? The formula is simple: familiar handling, comfortable positioning, and the right amount of assistance to make the rider feel connected to the bike. How a bike approaches that formula is very different, however.   These bikes have come a long way over the past few years. The best e-bikes are hard to...

  Ive been to every Overland Expo West since 2012. This year, there were 415 vendors displaying the latest and greatest from the overland industry.

You Can’t Handle an Adventure Dog
  I had just clipped the third bolt on a warm up route at a crag called The Shire when I heard the shouting below me. The ruckus shattered the idyllic quiet of a Kentucky spring day at the Red River Gorge, one of America’s most iconic climbing areas. I glanced down to find my belayer yelling at another party. Unbeknownst...
The Best Mountain Bike Shorts of 2024
  A quality pair of mountain bike shorts is the core of your riding kit. The best mountain bike shorts not only look good but fit comfortably, provide protection from the elements, breathe well, and allow for unrestricted movement and easy pedaling.

Why Is this Group of Skiers is the Most Likely to Have a Fatal Accident?
  When an avalanche ripped down a popular run in Palisades Tahoe on January 10, killing a 66-year-old local and trapping several others, the ski world was shocked. Avalanches in in-bounds, controlled ski resort terrain are rare—but sadly, the death it caused is not. A couple months later, a 58-year-old man died after crashing into a tree at Keystone Resort. The...
177-Mile ‘Denver Orbital Trail’ Offers City-Accessible Thru-Hike
  Thru-hikes, section hikes, FKTs, and other trail-centric mile-stacking objectives are all the rage right now. The Appalachian, Continental Divide, Pacific Crest, and similar trails are seeing greater use than ever by hikers trying to complete them — all in one go or in sections. The Appalachian Trail alone sees 3,000 attempted thru-hikers every year. In 2023, 1,201 successfully completed it....
The Keys to Courtney Dauwalter’s Continued Dominance
  Ultrarunner extraordinaire Courtney Dauwalter has picked up in 2024 right where she left off last year. After famously winning three of ultrarunning’s most epic races  during the span of about nine weeks last summer—Western States 100, Hardrock 100, and Ultra-Trail du Mont-Blanc—the 39-year-old athlete from Leadville, Colorado, defended her Transgrancanaria 126K title in a decisive wire-to-wire win in late February...
Why Are We So Annoyed by Remote Workers in Sprinter Vans?
  Dear Sundog,   I was looping through a campground looking for a spot, and found them not only full (no big surprise) but filled with Mercedes vans whose occupants were typing at laptops, buds in ears, even a few satellite thingies mounted on roofs. In other words, they were working. It felt so unfair that the very limited number of sites,...
