With sharp images and the power to resolve minute details, the straight-through viewing Alpen Optics Kodiak 20-60x60 Spotting Scope Straightis a powerful and versatile optic ideal for birding, hunting, shooting, and general nature viewing in your backyard or all the way out in the backcountry.

A large 60mm objective lens gives the scope the light-gathering power to produce vivid images in even low light and to ensure views remain bright even when studying subjects on maximum magnification at long range. The anti-reflection fully multicoated optics minimize reflections and maximize light transmission to help produce bright and clear high-contrast views with accurate colors and crisp clarity.

There is no need to stay home when the weather takes a nasty turn—the Kodiak is engineered to withstand the elements, with a nitrogen-filled and O-ring sealed body that is waterproof and resistant to internal fogging in extreme weather conditions and temperatures. To get you observing right out of the box, Alpen includes a collapsible tabletop tripod that is outfitted with a simple pan head and control handle. For extra protection while you're heading to your observation point, a tethered objective lens cap and carrying case are included.
