A cane includes an integral light in the handle, a leg attachment strap, and a foot attaching stirrup. The cane includes a rod assembly and a stirrup assembly. In one embodiment, the rod assembly includes a rod being a uniform cylindrical structure that is adapted to extend the length of a user's leg. The handle is disposed at a top most end of the rod and includes the light being embedded therein to provide illumination to the front and rear of a user. The stirrup provides a means for a user to nestle their foot to provide proper support.

A walking stick grip is defined with track slots for receiving a connecting buckle of a photographic device and with a convex portion engageable in a sliding groove of the connecting buckle and hence connectable to the photographic device. After taking pictures with the photographic device connected to the walking stick grip, the photographic device can be detached, and a cover body can be mounted on the grip, with the convex portion received in a sliding groove of the cover body, and convex sections of the cover body respectively pressed against blocking portions of the grip so that the portion of the grip that is mounted with the cover body can be gripped. The walking stick grip, therefore, facilitates picture taking as well as hiking.

A trek pole engageable support system is provided allowing users to form a support for a camera, firearm, or other object needing steady positioning. A body of the support has at least one support member engaged at a first end which is configured to compressibly engage the distal end of a support pole at a second end. So engaged with a support pole the body provides elevated support to the object being supported.

A convertible, multi-tasking cane and a method of using the cane is disclosed. The cane includes a tubular cane body defining an internal cavity, a handle attached to a first end of the tubular cane body, and a base support attached to a second end of the tubular cane body. The handle is converts to a seat upon actuation of a seat release mechanism. The cane further includes an umbrella, a rechargeable battery located in the internal cavity and above the second end of the tubular cane body, and a tubular insulating structure overlapping a portion of the tubular cane body. The tubular insulating structure houses a plurality of electronic devices.

Apparatus involved with but not limited to a telescoping trekking pole with attachments for holding in place sporting gear, including a rifle. A magnet may be disposed near the upper end of the trekking pole assembly and may magnetically receive a barrel of a rifle, while a protrusion extending laterally some distance down the trekking pole assembly may receive the butt of a stock of a rifle. Telescoping lengths of a trekking pole allow a trekking pole to be adjusted in length to accommodate a user's height and/or the length of a rifle to be held by a trekking pole, and for a trekking pole to be reduced in length for portability and storage. Additional elements, such as handles and rings, may be disposed on a trekking pole to allow additional surfaces for gripping or hanging additional sporting gear, respectively.

A standing and walking support device and system supports and aids a user as the user moves from a sitting position to a standing position. A user is able to grasp and hold a top section of the device as the user stands up. As weight of the user and/or force is placed on the top section, the device compresses under the user's weight and/or force. The device guides the user to shift their center of gravity forward. As the user stands up, the device decompresses to return to its original height. The device and system is then usable as a support as the user walks.

Two-in-one walking supports and methods of using the walking support. The walking supports include first and second shaft portions and a handle assembly that has first and second handles. A latching mechanism is incorporated into the first and second handles and is configured to releasably couple the first and second handles to form the handle assembly and a single walking support configuration with the first and second shaft portions abutting one another and being configured to decouple the first and second handles and separate the first and second shaft portions to form a two-piece walking support configuration.

A roofing walking stick for providing stability during navigation on the roof of a structure, the system providing a roofing walking stick having of a handle, elongated shaft, one or more joint couplings, and a base; wherein the one or more joint couplings are configured to allow the elongated shaft to rotatably articulate relative to the base; wherein the base provides grip when in contact with the roof.

A self-righting cane is provided that includes a handle portion having a grip and a collar. A shaft extends from the handle portion and is joined to the handle portion at the collar. A base supporting portion includes a weight disposed within the base supporting portion. The weight has an aperture such that the shaft connecting to the base supporting portion through the aperture. The weight disposed within the base supporting portion self-rights the cane and prevents the cane from falling over.

One aspect of this disclosure is a pole apparatus. The pole apparatus may comprise a grip segment comprising a cord attachment surface; a pole segment; a tip segment and a cord extending between at least the pole segment and the tip segment. The grip segment, the pole segment, and the tip segment may be arrangeable in a side-by-side disposition. A portion of the cord extending between the pole segment and the tip segment may be positionable on the cord attachment surface in the side-by-side disposition. The grip segment may be removably attachable to the tip segment such that, when the portion of the cord is positioned on the cord attachment surface, the removable attachment of the grip segment to the tip segment may maintain the side-by-side disposition. Aspects of related apparatus, methods, and systems also are disclosed.
