"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I like how the carbon shafts cut weight without feeling fragile, especially on long climbs. The twist locks are easy to fine-tune with gloves on, and the EVA grips stay comfortable when the day stretches longer than planned.""We reach for the Andesite Neo Carbon Trekking Poles from Mountainsmith when long days on rugged terrain call for dependable support. The poles feel reassuringly light in hand as we pick up the first climb, and their carbon-fiber construction keeps fatigue low even when the trail pitches steeply. With three telescoping sections, we adjust quickly for tight scrambles, rolling traverses, and extended descents. As the hours stack up, the EVA handles stay comfortable, and the twist-lock adjustment holds firm when we plant hard into uneven rock or shifting dirt. Snow and mini baskets give us the flexibility to keep moving through shoulder-season conditions, while the adjustable wrist straps fine-tune control when the footing gets rough. From packed trails to loose ridgelines, the Andesite Neo keeps us moving efficiently toward the next horizon."
