Brown-trousers stuff. Get the angle wrong, and you polevault yourself into the void, nope noppity nope.
But it must be admitted that the people in the Canarias do have unique solutions in adapting to their challenging environment, so 100% credit for creativity.

Seems useful for going downhill in steep terrain. What about uphill? Also, seems like going off trail should be discouraged in sensitive areas, so I hope this doesn’t become a “thing”.

Yeah, but how do you get up with the pole?

Or do you use a hammer for that?
