"Hi, I just started pole-walking and was feeling a little self-conscious about it. However, friends and I decided to go trail - walking in Cathedral Lakes Provincial Park in southern BC. It was glorious. Everyone was with poles and I even managed to go hiking up to the 8000'level using my walking poles. And this was steep terrain! I felt as though I had accomplished a lot even with my newly diagnosis of MS."
