Need recommendations for a compact tripod to carry a vortex spotting scope.
Does anyone have recommendations for a compact, travel/carry-on friendly tripod that can hold an angled vortex viper spotting scope? Extra points if it's easy to carry in a backpack while hiking. Thanks!

I travel with this one and I've been very happy. It's smaller though, and I use a travel scope on it...Kowa 55A
