Can anyone recommend a lightweight, compact scope for hiking that will still give you a good distance?

Hi Kathy,

I have this scope for hiking. It is really light and compact and still gives good distance...


They do have even smaller ones, but I don't know about the distance.

Thanks to everyone that replied.  After reading everyone's recommendations, I found one that I really like at, and this new setup with the tripod is 5.5 pounds lighter than my current setup.  Yeah!
