Why We Like The Black Diamond Expedition WR 3 Trekking Pole

A Whippet Ready version of Black Diamond's most popular 4 season trekking pole, the Expedition WR Trek Pole offers versatility for skiers, mountaineers, and hikers. The rubber-tipped handle is compatible with Black Diamond's Whippet and Alpine Whippet accessories (as well as a camera mount and Distance Tent) for safer winter traverses over snow and ice. The lightweight, durable aluminum construction and time-tested flick-locks offer year-round durability and performance, whether we're hitting the mountain in our skis or hiking boots.

Veresatile

I like the versatility - I'm planning to use the whippet attachments and the monopod attachment while hiking, backpacking and ski touring. The grips are comfortable and this update of the flicklocks seem nice so far. I really wish these came in a contour (elliptical shaft) option. For taller and/or heavier users, especially while carrying a heavy load, these poles are a tad on the flexy side. The contour (elliptical) shafts make a huge difference and stiffness and durability.

Quality Gear

Good weight and balance. I like the varsity of the grips.

Evolution of the backcountry pole

The versatility of the new expedition poles is awesome. All the classic features you'd expect but with the ability to add a Whippet to it. I love the 3 piece length for when things get steep. Only gripe I have is the foam of the grip, it collects wet snow. I'd rather have a firm gripe with a band around the pole for choking up on it. But these are still ideal.

Good addition to my kit

Using this for ski mountaineering and they are super light and I appreciate the fact that they can accept a whippet head!

Great ski poles

Love these poles because it allows me to add a camera, whippet, or other items. I bought the adapter and am pleased with the quality.

Just what I was looking for!

These poles are the lightest whippet ready poles you can find plus they have the extended grip on them and they come in a fun color. Can’t wait to get out there this season!

Lite, bright and just right.

Lite enough and comfy the resort and uphill backcountry adventure. Like that I can add my whippet to either one when the need arises.

LOVE THEM

Great light weight poles. We have used them for skinning and down hill and they work great. Easy to adjust and really sturdy. Love them!

Almost perfect

I bought these because they seem well constructed and whippet compatible which I had a whippet attachment laying around. They have proven to be much more durable than my previous pair of folding black diamond poles and the whippet attachment goes on and off no problem. I would give 5 stars but, as someone else pointed out in their review, the poles don’t stay completely collapsed; the bottom 2 - 3 inches will float in and out. This seems due to the taper of the pole near the bottom clasp and is just something you’ll have to deal with when using this pole.
