ABSTRACT:
A portable, free-standing shelter for hunters and the like is of generally frusto-conical configuration and has a base and upwardly inclined sidewalls terminating in an open top. The sidewalls are defined by a plurality of panels of generally triangular or trapezoidal configuration, having top and bottom edges connected by upwardly convergent opposite sides. Hinged connecting means interconnect adjacent sides of the panels in articulated relation so that the bottom edges of the panels define the base of the shelter and the top edges of the panels define the open top thereof. The connected panels may then be arranged into various configurations, including a substantially open shelter or screen, or a closed or partially closed shelter as desired.
