Coleman started selling gasoline-powered lanterns in 1900. Inventor of the hugely popular fold-up camp stove, Coleman developed a plastic liner for his galvanized steel coolers in 1957--the birth of the modern cooler--and the company has been improving their utility and design ever since.

  Pole fine, tips not December 22, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The poles are great, but the very first time I took them on the trail, one of the rubber tips disapeared within the first hour! I really like the compass in the handles - very useful when hiking in the mountains.
  Great for Geocaching December 7, 2007 Coleman Trekking Pole These light weight poles are perfect for geocaching in the woods. Fully adjustable for height, they provide the needed support for going up and down the hills and trails. The ski pole like handle grip (with a compass on top) is ergonomic and comfortable. The rubber tip is easily removed to expose the metal winter tip. This metal tip is perfect for exploring all sorts of cavities such as holes & under logs. This tip is also great for poking through leaves & needles on the forest floor. The tell-tale metallic thud is a sure sign of a hidden geocache. We have not owned these poles long enough to tell how durable they are. However, I doubt that this will be a problem. I would recommend these poles to fellow geocachers and for anyone who needs light weight walking support.
P.S. Fogdog was an excellant company to deal with for these poles.
  Glue the tips!! November 18, 2007 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I recently hiked rim to rim to rim in the Grand Canyon using these poles and I must say I will never hike without trekking poles again. While these were a great "intro" pair of poles, they seemed sturdy and provided plenty of support, after the first day I lost a tip on one and the other within a few days. After the tips fell out the pole itself disintegrated very quickly. I would recommend removing the tips after purchase and gluing with epoxy or JB weld. I will be returning poles for a refund due to defectiveness and probably getting a nicer pair of poles from another manufacturer. I wouldn't recommend these to anyone unless you only want to use them once.
  Trekking Poles November 4, 2007 We found both poles to be very good. Helped with our balance and safety at the Grand Canyon, Bryce and Zion. Will take them on every vacation from now on..
  Great bang for the buck! September 4, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I hiked to the summit of Mt. Washington with this stick and it was a blessing. I only paid $14.99 for it and I can't imagine the more high scale models that go for $100+ are all that much better. I've read reviews on some of the more expensive ones and it seems they have the same issues from time to time. Save yourself a small fortune and get yourself one of these.
