My trekking pole is a straight young Aspen tree, well aged and pealed, nothing else on the pole except a leather thong used as a wrist strap. light strong and can be used to start a fire by shaving the lower part. you can use a cane end for the bottom for a better grip, but I have found the bare end works just fine.
