I think perhaps it doesn't telescope quite as short as a monopod(?)
Wouldn't fit in a camera bag, you really have to use it as a stick when
you're not using it as a monopod.  On the other hand, it's very light as
hiking sticks go.

Any good-sized hiking store or catalog ought to have them.  Sierra Trading
Post sometimes does, I think Campmor always does...you can usually find an
ad in the back of Backpacker or Outdoors, I think...REI on the west coast,
maybe Eastern Mountaint Sports on the east coast...
