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.

Patented Nesting Leg Locks™

Unparalleled customer service. Ground breaking design. This thing is legit.

My hunting partner and I had each ordered a tripod (one of each) for a recent Mule deer hunt. I was excited to finally use a “real tripod” as I had been cheaping out and trying to keep things cost efficient. After many frustrating mishaps, breaks, lost animals…..I finally cracked and splurged.

Let me tell you. I’m so glad I did.

Upon awaiting for them to show up here in Canada longer than anticipated….I reached out to customer service, Braeden, the ower. He was incredible to deal with, worked diligently to problem solve a solution…and in the end…it turned out they were lost in the delivery vortex and we were sh!t out of luck. Not on Braeden’s watch…he DROVE TWO TRIPODS FROM WASHINGTON TO SASKATCHEWAN…….
.
We were completely blown away that he would be so passionate about his product that he would drive 18 hours, each way, to make sure we were geared up as planned.

Now onto the tripod. Lightweight, compact, incredibk stable, easy and quick to pack up and such a thoughtful design. The whole hunt I kept noticing little details that were included in the design to minimize space and maximize stability.

I’m so grateful to have rolled the dice and tried out a new to the market product as this thing is deadly.

Thanks again to the owner for his service….life long customer.
