And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Walking Stick. Supposedly, using one of these while hiking takes 15% of the load off your knees.
Wow, I had no idea it was that effective. When taking the 'evening constitutional', I notice when I carry a walking stick (to ward of dogs should that occur - it hasn't - YET!), I do seem to have a little more spring in my step. I always thought it was the counterweight which helped that. ???
In the rurals, those canes / staffs are good for checking for venemous snakes and pushing off thorny growth away from the path as we trudge. Also a good makeshift rifle rest.

That would also be nice to have in your hand if you happen to be surrounded with a mob of Antifa or urbanites of diversity!
