Description 

Tensa Trekking Treez are trekking poles that convert to a hammock stand, allowing 
backpackers to sleep in hammocks instead of on the ground in alpine, desert, or similar 
tree-sparse areas. We sell poles and related accessories singly as systems to support one 
side of a hammock, since having only one with an available tree greatly increases 
hammock-eligible sites even in wooded areas. Two systems form a complete stand and 
pair of trekking poles. Trekking Treez, used as replacements for standard trekking poles, 
remove the need for redundant ground sleeping gear, saving weight while preserving the 
superior comfort of hammock camping.
