Mountainsmith Trekker FX 7075 Trekking Poles, Black
December 19, 2017 - Comment
Our Trekker FX adjustable hiking pole does double duty as a lightweight trekking staff and camera mono-pod for perfect set-ups in the backcountry… or the backyard. The EVA top handle unscrews, revealing a universal ¼”-20 SAE male bolt for fitment with most Point and Shoot, Hi-Zoom, and lightweight DSLR cameras. Due to the sensitive nature of camera equipment, we recommend our mono-pod function at a max carrying capacity of 3lbs. Please use discretion when in the field. This rugged single hiking staff comes equipped with comfortable EVA handle, anti-shock system, removable hiking basket, wrist strap, replaceable rubber boot tip, and carbide tip for exceptional traction on rock, trail and scree

Great hiking pole and monopod combo! Worked perfectly on a long hike in Danali National Park, Alaska. Works well as a hiking pole, and doubles as a monopod for cameras. Monopod worked great in soft ground – just pushed it in, mounted the camera, and was able to easily take photos of our small hiking group to include everyone.
Works well. A great walking pole and monopod. I used it on a recent trip to hawaii and it worked great. I may try to find an adapter to make it work as a selfie stick too. My only criticism is that the adjustment locking system is a bit tough to work. I prefer the lever style, this poe has the twist lock ones.
Need a trekking pole that doubles as a monopod? You’re not going to do better in this price range. Sturdy, easy to adjust, and the only pole with a threaded camera mount I could find anywhere near this price point. I highly recommend buying a cheap adjustable swivel adapter for the camera mount, which makes this so much more useful.
