Featherlight Strength That Won't Weigh You Down
The Mountainsmith Andesite NEO Carbon Fiber Trekking Poles were developed in collaboration with legendary long-distance hiker "The Real Hiking Viking" to meet the demands of those who live on the trail. These poles prioritize lightweight performance and straightforward durability, utilizing a full carbon fiber construction that reduces swing weight and eases the strain on your joints. Unlike traditional three-section poles, the Andesite Neo uses a sturdy two-section telescoping design, which minimizes weight and adjustment points while increasing overall shaft rigidity. The double cam twist lock system provides a secure, non-slip hold that can support up to 160 pounds of lean-on weight. For all-day comfort, these poles feature extended EVA foam handles that allow for multiple hand positions on varied terrain, paired with soft-touch adjustable wrist straps. Each pair comes equipped with replaceable carbide tips for biting into rock and dirt, as well as interchangeable hiking and snow baskets. These poles are a purposeful tool built for hikers who value efficiency and no-nonsense reliability over complex gadgets.
