ABSTRACT:
Portable awning apparatus for temporary attachment to uprights such as tree trunks or the like. The awning apparatus includes a triangular frame having a pair of side members which enclose a tree trunk, and an end member spaced outwardly from the tree trunk. A support member interconnects the two side members at a selectively adjustable distance from the apex of the triangular frame, thereby accommodating tree trunks of different sizes and permitting adjustable tilt of the awning on the tree trunk. A flexible cover extends backwardly from the end member and secures to the tree. The entire awning folds to a relatively compact and easily carryable package when not in use.
