I have seen little on the forum regarding pole tips and baskets.
Do you use either? If so, how or why?
I might think the rubber tips over the carbide tips would be better on gripping the rocks on the AT and that the carbide tips might grip the ground better but harm the soil surface on well-used trails?
Do baskets help in mud? I still have the smaller baskets but they seem to get caught between rocks typical on the AT.
Any comments?
Thanks
