Black Diamond Trail Cork Trekking Poles

Cork is naturally moisture-wicking and breathable, which helps keep your hands dry and comfortable during long, sweaty treks. Over time, the material also compresses slightly to custom-fit the shape of your palm.

The FlickLock mechanism is designed for reliability in all conditions. Unlike twist-lock systems that can freeze or slip when wet, this external lever allows you to securely adjust the pole length even while wearing gloves.

Yes, they are built for four-season use. The poles come with interchangeable baskets, allowing you to swap the smaller trekking baskets for wider snow baskets to prevent the poles from sinking into deep powder.

These poles collapse down to 25.51 inches. This length is compact enough to strap onto the side of most standard daypacks or overnight hiking backpacks when you aren't using them.

The 7075 aluminum construction offers a high strength-to-weight ratio and is generally more resistant to impact and bending than carbon fiber. While slightly heavier, it is a more durable choice if you frequently hike on rocky, technical terrain where poles might get wedged or struck.
