First Look at the Black Ovis Crestone Trekking Poles
Today we'll be looking at the Crestone Trekking poles Black Ovis released several months ago. Now, I haven't thoroughly gone through these on a hunt but I did put 4 miles in desert lava rock and 1000 feet in elevation on them last week. Mostly in preparation for a Montana spring bear hunt I have coming up.

So far I really like how Black Ovis put these together, I'll be putting them through some of the roughest country I've ever had the opportunity to hike here in a month or so.
Are trekking Poles worth it?
Trekking poles are like the pre-workout, they give you that little extra kick you need to do one more rep. I don't use them all the time on every hunt, I do use them almost every time there is a pack out to be done. They are great little knee savers that can definitely come in handy when the time comes.
