Why We Like The Black Diamond Alpine Carbon Cork Trekking Poles

Boasting tons of versatility and a high-quality construction that helps us over whatever obstacles lie in front of us, the Black Diamond Alpine Carbon Cork Trekking Poles are a reliable partner for any and all adventures on the trail. From mellow hills to steep upper-mountain terrain, we always have the extra support needed to keep moving. They're made with a lightweight yet ultra-strong carbon fiber, and feature two locking adjustment points to find the perfect height then pack them down easily when not in use. They've got a premium cork grip that feels comfortable in your and also wicks moisture as hike, and an extended non-slip foam grip that lets you choke up your grip when you're taking on steep and technical terrain.

Alpine Carbon Cork Trekking Poles

Bought them for a Mtn Goat hunt in BC. Taking a tarp tent, so the poles will be doing triple duty. (Hiking poles, tent poles, and glassing shelter support in the rain. ) If things go well they may get used as shooting sticks.

My Fav Poles

I’ve used a ton of trekking poles and these are by far my favorite. They’re super lightweight and the cork handles feel great.

Couldn’t have made it up Mt. Whitney without them.

When I was backpacking in my early 20s I always went without trekking poles. Recently scored permits for Mt. Whitney and knew that trekking poles would be essential. Bought these and they were great! Light weight, comfortable in the hands. Couldn’t have made it up (or down) without them.

This trekking poles has a serious product issue

The lower shaft, about the bottom 3–4" of the pole can NOT be fully locked in place when the pole is in folding position, the diameter of that tapering in section is too small for the locking mechanism to engage properly, that results the lower shaft can be easily slide in and out, even I tightened the flick lock by using the provided tool (Allen Wrench), still doesn’t work, this is a serious product issue.

Great poles, unfortunate grip defect

The poles are great, very strong and very light weight. The carbon absorbs the shock well. Unfortunately, my cork grip on one of them cracked and broke on a through hike through regular use. Had to tape it up on the trail. Are the handles replaceable?

Best Hiking pole on the market.

Lightweight carbon and Cork handles are amazing. Cork makes all the difference on those hot days when sweat is a factor.

They’re very nice. very light with the tech tips on them. Better than the tip protectors. Moved to the Tetons for the summer. So they are getting used. Wolf creek yesterday (easy) Middle Teton tomorrow 😳

My favorites

I had a pair and loved them but lost them due to being a space cadet. I was hesitant to shell out the cash for a new pair, so I went with a cheaper pair of Lekis. The Lekis are fine, but I always missed my BD carbon cork poles. I finally buckled and got a new pair of BDs. The cork grip is solid and substantial and allows the grip to gradually shape to your hand. The flick lock system is secure and easy to operate. And I like the lightweight carbon construction. I’ve jammed them into talus when moving quickly and was afraid I’d break one but they are very durable.
