This time of year, people, companies, brands are all in the spirit to give. Mountainsmith supports lots of great organizations all year but since it the season of giving….we wanted to give a little more to help a great group of people. Mountainsmith donated $1,000 worth of Carbonlite poles to support Big City Mountaineer’s Summit for Someone.

“Big City Mountaineers transforms the lives of under-served urban youth through wilderness mentoring expeditions that instill critical life skills. We partner with community-based youth organizations and caring adult volunteers who act as mentors in the field to help young people realize their potential. Our curriculum improves integrity, self- esteem, responsibility, decision-making abilities and communication skills in close to 1,000 youth annually.”

Supporting organizations that get kids outdoors is right along with Mountainsmith’s core values. Proud to be a part of of Summit for Someone.

  1. Hi Sally, I’ve the Leki Poles and deciding whaevetr to take the one or two poles. Pros & cons, with 2 poles better walking balance, with 1 pole better swing. Also with 2 poles, tricky on ascent and descent inwhich case better on the flat. Looks like it’s 1 pole for the Coast to Coast, less weight.
