They telescope from 25.5 inches out to 53 inches and come with wrist straps, so one set fits different heights and tunes to the terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Yukon Charlie's Elite trekking snow poles are a straightforward, well-made set of adjustable poles for anyone who spends time on snow and winter trails. They're built from aluminum, they telescope from 25 and a half inches all the way out to 53 inches, and they come with wrist straps. That's the whole pitch, and honestly, for most snowshoers and winter hikers, that's exactly what you want.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLet's talk about that adjustment range first, because it's the feature that does the most work. Being able to run these anywhere from 25.5 inches to 53 inches means one set of poles fits just about everyone in the family, and it means you can dial the length to the terrain instead of the other way around. Heading uphill? Shorten them a few inches so your arms sit at a comfortable angle and you can plant firmly into the slope. Coming back down? Lengthen them so you can reach downhill and keep your weight balanced over your feet. On flat, open snow, set them so your elbow bends at roughly 90 degrees when the tip is planted. It's a small thing that saves your shoulders over a long day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe collapsed length matters too. At 25.5 inches packed down, these strap to the side of a daypack without catching on branches, and they'll fit in most gear totes and vehicle trunks without a fight. When you hit the snow, they extend back out in seconds. If you switch between snowshoeing, boot-packing, and just walking a snowy road, that quick adjustment is genuinely useful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAluminum is the right call for a pole like this. It's light enough that you're not fighting the weight with every step, it shrugs off cold without getting brittle the way some materials can, and it takes a knock without cracking. If you bend a pole hard against a rock or a root buried under the snow, aluminum tends to flex rather than snap, and you can often ease it back. It's also why these land at a friendly price instead of a premium one. For weekend snowshoers and folks who want a dependable pole without overthinking it, that trade is easy to make.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wrist straps are more than a nice touch. Set them right and the strap carries some of the load through your wrist, so your hand isn't death-gripping the grip all day. They also keep a pole from getting away from you if you loosen your hand for a second on a descent or a stream crossing. Slip your hand up through the loop from below, then down over the strap, and let it settle across your palm. That's the way to wear them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWho are these for? Snowshoers first and foremost, since that's the world Yukon Charlie's lives in. But they work just as well for winter day hikes, packed-snow trails, and shoulder-season conditions where the footing gets uncertain. Two points of contact with the ground make a real difference on ice, in deep snow, and on off-camber terrain where a slip is easy. They take load off your knees on the descents and give you something to push against on the climbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA couple of honest notes. These are a value-priced aluminum pole, not a featherweight carbon race pole, so if you're counting grams for a fast-and-light setup, know what you're buying. And check the tips and baskets against the conditions you'll be in before you head out, so you've got the right setup underfoot. For the money, though, the Elite poles cover the basics that actually matter. They adjust wide, they pack small, they're tough, and they won't let you down on the trail. Rig them up, set your length, and go enjoy the snow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAluminum construction keeps the poles light and cold-tolerant while still taking a knock without cracking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAdjusts from 25.5 inches to 53 inches, so one set fits different heights and lets you tune length to the terrain\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCollapses to 25.5 inches for easy strapping to a pack or stowing in a trunk\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWrist straps carry part of the load through your wrist and keep a pole with you on descents\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTelescoping design extends and packs down in seconds between snowshoeing and hiking\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo points of contact add stability on ice, deep snow, and off-camber terrain\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilt by Yukon Charlie's, a dedicated snowshoe and winter-trail brand\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack finish across the full length of the pole\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized AIRHEAD Watersports reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eHow long do these poles adjust?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThey telescope from 25.5 inches to 53 inches, so you can set them to your height and shorten or lengthen them for climbs and descents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/details\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhat are the poles made of?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eAluminum.
