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.

45 Years Later, Gerber Updates an Icon: LST Ultra Review
  Back in 1980, Pete Gerber teamed up with knifemaker Blackie Collins to rethink the classic lockback folder. Their goal was simple: build a lighter, more useful everyday knife. The result was the Gerber LST — a synthetic-scaled, lockback pocketknife that helped define modern EDC.   The LST quickly became an American staple, right alongside the Buck 110s and Case slipjoints favored...

  I glance at the route guide, “rocky surface ahead.” Having already ascended past 6,000 feet above sea level on a narrow, pockmark-laden, uneven dirt path, I wondered how much more this non-Wilderness Subaru could take.   Turns out, plenty. Courtesy of 8.7 inches of ground clearance and inherent off-road strength in the suspension, the seventh-generation Outback marched right up the trail,...
