When a full-size tripod is just "too much equipment" to take into the field, our compact tripod gets the job done. The 4-section legs extend to 31.5" and collapse to a mere 15". The adjustable ball head with quick-release base gives you incredible viewing versatility.

For rock-steady viewing from your vehicle, use the window mount with nearly any spotting scope. Includes a detachable mounting plate that's interchangeable with Leupold tripods, so you can make a quick switch from vehicle to field viewing.

Tripods can be awkward to carry into the field, yet trekking poles don't have the utility of a tripod. Enter Leupold's Trek Pod II.

Use it as a height-adjustable trekking pole, and when needed, three legs flair out, making it a free-standing optics mount. Where the tripod meets the pole, there's a pivot that adjusts to uneven terrain. At the top is a powerful magnetic optics mount, and you get two additional magnets which you can attach to any optics with threaded mounts. It's so secure, you can still walk with your spotting scope or camera still attached to the Trek Pod II. Lightweight, with a dark brown anodized finish, it's rugged enough to use anywhere.
