Why We Love It
Calvin Jiricko

Trekking poles are essential on the approach, but on technical terrain they become a liability fast. The Distance Carbon poles solve that problem better than anything else out there. They collapse down to an impressively small package, so stowing them mid-route is quick and painless, and at the weight they come in, you will genuinely question if they are real. Deployment and stow are unbelievably fast, which matters when conditions are changing and you need your hands free. The attached baskets are sized just right for mixed terrain, navigating rock, snow, and ice without the oversized floatation you only need in deep powder. For the kind of objectives where you are covering miles on the approach and then transitioning to technical climbing, these poles remove every excuse to leave them at home.

“I CANNOT say enough good things about these poles. They feel like they are injected with helium - they are SO light. Unbelievably fast to deploy and stow, these poles pack down super small. I also love the attached pole baskets, which are perfect for many miles. The pole baskets are the perfect size for navigating rock, snow, and ice. Since we are often not in deep powder for the height of the season, you don’t need oversized baskets, and these poles strike the perfect balance.”
