Last weekend me and one of my buddies went up north to try to get on public land pigs again! Putting my pack together the night before in camp i had my vortex tripod side by side with the gtp1. It was a no brainer which one i was guna bring up this steep mountain. I typically use a 15 x 56 power binoculars and I was a little worried about stabilization. The weight of those binoculars did not even phase the GTP1. Solid as a rock I was able to glass up deer, elk and pigs. Unfortunately those pigs made it to private before we can get close enough. I would recommend it for the steep nasty hills in San Diego County as well. Hopefully I draw my Nevada dream tag next year and put this thing to use!
