Imagine buying a fucking stick, an inferior version of a stick at that.

I was thinking of buying some black diamond carbon fag poles myself, talk me out of it /out/.
Really the main reason was so I could try tarp sleeping and brace my crossbow 2 up in shit weather.

Carbon fiber ones snap way too easily, if you just want something to set up a shelter and you only need one pole, you can get just a tent pole for lighter than a trekking pole

i just took a long remote trip in the sw and it crossed my mind how much of a fucking retard one would have to be to regularly use trekking poles

any trails were a foot wide so if you had poles you would just have to smush them into the crypto? I imagine people do exactly that sadly. When there wasn't a trail it was dense brush, unless you were autistically using your poles somehow to brush it aside they would be useless. for a slope/rock scramble class 2-4 they are useless from what I could picture.

what is so damned hard about walking? I will give old timers a pass but if you're young and you use poles you're a fucking disgrace

You larping retards would get swept away by swift currents up in these parts, and nobody would be there to rescue your sorry asses in the real backcountry.

Humans have used sticks for support for ages, long before modern hiking poles were invented. You're the retard here if you never thought of that.

Sticks are good in a pinch, but poles are superior because they're adjustable allowing you to adjust to whatever terrain you're hiking

I realize that millennials and zoomers have turned the outdoors into a giant fashion show but what does it matter what equipment you use as long as you have a safe outing? The same applies with these tired boots vs. trailrunners debates. Who cares?

>Trekking poles on the other hand are almost always better than a walking stick, especially if you do a lot of trekking through a rough terrain with many uphills and downhills. They’re better in keeping yourself balanced, especially with a heavy backpack

Sums it up well. I wasn't a fan until I actually went on a long, technical hike and used some poles.

It's worth nothing that over 90% of AT thru-hikers use trekking poles compared to 15% of casual day hikers on the AT. That's quite telling.

A good wooden walking stick is pretty cool and can be used as a weapon as well. You can make it yourself and carve some decorations. You can add a metal point or use is as a sling staff. Sticks are based ngl
