>>2751792No one is saying Skurka approves of trekki g poles so trekki g poles are good. I’m just pointing out that the very specific brand of trekking poles Anon thought aren’t popular among uktralight backpackers are acktyually very popular. So much so that Andrew Skurka did a write up on them. Like I said, you’re a fucking retard
>who?A guy who took hiking and morphed it into what could only be described as adventuring. It doesn’t degrade Skurka by not knowing who he is. It brings into question your knowledge and experience. It’s like being interested in basketball and not knowing who Charles Barkley or Michael Jordan is. Your brand new if you’ve never even heard of him.
