Solution

The correct option is D (a) and (b) above.
Trekking pole helps to balance during walking. Trekking pole also helps to measure the depth of the snow. To measure the depth of the snow, just dip in the tip of a pole in the snow. If trekking pole goes deep inside snow then the snow is very deep and dangerous to walk. If not then you are safe to go on.
