Telescope - Celestron 10 X 25 Extending Telescope Look cool as a Sea Captain when you whip out this hand telescope instead of clunky binoculars to see afar. A mere 5 ¼ inches when stored and weighing only 8 ounces, this powerful viewing aid comes from Celestron, a world leader in high-quality telescopes. Made of brass with leatherette trim; doesn’t take up much room in your pack, is more rugged than most binoculars and brings things in the distance up close. Almost too close in some cases I found – it takes some getting used to how powerful this tool is. Twist the telescope section closest to your eye to focus.
The Celestron retails for about $40, buy it for $30 or rent it from us for your next backpacking trip for under $1 a day.
