The attachment functions as a stake driver, trowel, and retrieval hook, eliminating the requirement for a separate hammer or hand tool. Users can anchor tent stakes, clear campfire debris, or dig cat holes without the physical strain of kneeling or bending. Its lightweight construction is aimed at hikers and campers looking to minimize their pack weight while maintaining utility on the trail.
A Nampa Inventor Combines Trekking Poles with Excavation Tools
An inventor from Nampa, Idaho, has designed the Hike & Hide, a multipurpose attachment that converts a standard trekking pole into a versatile outdoor tool. By integrating a trowel head and a stake driver, the device aims to streamline campsite setup and gardening tasks while reducing the need to bend or carry extra gear.

InventHelp is currently managing the licensing and marketing efforts for the design, which is cataloged as SBT-2283. The firm is seeking partnerships with manufacturers interested in bringing the multipurpose tool to the outdoor recreation market. Interested parties can reach the company’s Pittsburgh office for technical specifications or licensing inquiries.
