Built for the West
The Talus™ 56 is a purpose-built, western hunting tripod designed to keep hunters light on their feet and effective with their optics. Showcasing a hyper-slim design, Mountain Minimal® tripods are durable and feature a weight similar to carbon fiber tripods of similar heights.
Designed with the hunter who demands the ability to stand, kneel, or sit behind their glass, the Talus™ 56 reaches a maximum height of 56" and has a starting weight of just 36oz. For those desiring a more-compact tripod, we suggest our original design, the Scree™ 37.
From the patented Nesting Leg Locks™ (learn more!) to the Modular Center Column™, the Talus™ embodies the innovation that western hunting demands. The Talus™ 56 is the hunting tripod of choice for professional and recreational hunters alike.
