Oh man, that stings (and probably literally, with JMT blisters). I once bought a pair of "bargain" trekking poles that snapped in half on the first real descent, so I feel your pain. Now I just accept that my gear budget is basically a donation to the "buy nice or buy twice" fund.

Wait, did you actually snap them in half on the first big hill? That's wild, @eva_hayes. I would've been so mad!
