Are the high end poles worth the money or can you get away with a 60$ pair from Amazon.
Anyone have any stories or opinions or a brand or model you would recommend.
Im 5' 11" 230lbs and will be in mountainous ground.
I have used trekking poles for at least 10 years now. They are indispensable for me, especially when hauling large loads down hill.
Id recommend getting the best you can afford. High end poles are strong, and more importantly, light weight. They will last for years as well.
