The Many Benefits of Hiking Poles
1. Climbing Lower your grip on the poles (if your model has grip extensions) or decrease the length a few inches, and you now have added power for tackling ascents.
Using poles also helps your posture on climbs, so that your torso is upright (which conveniently aids in breathing by opening your lungs).
2. Downhill Descents can really be harder than climbs, and if you’ve ever gone downhill on a fairly steep trail for more than an hour, you know what I mean. Your legs, and especially your knees, take a beating on the descent.
Luckily, a pair of hiking poles relieves much of the abuse on your joints, again by distributing the load and shocks through different parts of your body.
Some poles include a shock-absorbing tip, which helps to save your joints even more. (On flat terrain or climbs, you'll want to lock this mechanism, though.)
3. Traversing When going sideways along a slope, or traversing uneven, rocky terrain, your hiking poles will help you keep a sure footing.
Every hiker from time to time slips or stumbles. (That’s part of the fun right?) A pair of poles just might keep you firmly planted.
4. Endurance On long treks, you will find that a set of trekking poles allows you go farther without feeling so much pain and exhaustion.
In reality, you are not putting out less effort. You are spreading that effort out to more of your body, so you feel it less.
What you get in return is a full body workout.
5. Other Benefits Hiking Poles may come in handy in a number of other situations:
- In the very unlikely event you need to defend yourself
- As a support for a tarp shelter
- To carry duct tape for impromptu repairs (wrap a few strips around the shaft)
- To gauge the depth of streams or rivers when crossing
- To push back low-hanging branches or overgrown brush from the trail
