I’ve been in China for the summer, and it has developed that I’ll be doing some mountaineering/hiking in Taiwan and Japan when I leave. I have all my gear, but I have found myself in China with no trekking poles. The French brand Quechua is everywhere, and it has pretty good prices. I typically love Leki poles, but alas there’s nothing I can do. Does anyone know about the integrity of Quechua gear? The poles are pretty light and seem ok, but I know nothing about this brand because we don’t have it in the states as far as I know. I only need the poles for a couple weeks.
