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.

  The Emerald Pools, a series of three pristine cascading bodies of water, is one of the most scenic spots in all of Zion National Park.

For Tall Backpackers Who Go Ultralight: Six Moons Designs Skyscape Trekker Tent Review
  As I trudged up the nearly 1,000-foot vertical trail leading to the top of the mountain I was camping on, I watched the sunset and the storm clouds building. The conditions weren’t ideal for pitching the new Six Moon Designs Skyscape Trekker Backpacking Tent for the first time, but I was going to put it through a serious test.   About...

What Does Your Tacoma Say About You?
  The other day, while getting groceries, I saw a well-loved first-generation Toyota Tacoma with a camper shell. Walking past it, I realized that even though I hadn’t seen the owner, I had them pegged. This was the type of Tacoma that a young person would drive all across the American West.
