Maybe anatomy isn't easy to understand, but the Kelty Upslope 2. 0 Trekking Poles are. Tough aluminum shafts, combined with extended Eva grips and padded wrist straps, give you plenty of support while you're descending and balance while you're crossing tricky slopes. The bomber length adjustment gives hikers, backpackers, and trekkers of all sizes some extra help on rough trails. With carbide and rubber tips, the Upslopes are at home on dirt, rock, and everything in between, with low - profile trekking baskets that won't sink into mud or get hung up on trees and rocks.
