ABSTRACT:
A tree chair which may be secured to a tree for supporting a user at elevated dispositions includes a rigid base having a pair of spaced apart rails and a flexible band pivotally connected to each rail. The base includes a rigid V-shape tree engaging member and the bands are connectable to each other or a third band so as to encircle the tree. A seat hangs from and is adjustable relative to the base and a back support brace is pivotally mounted on the rails of the base. Sleeve forming clips are pivotally connected to opposite sides of the brace to provide guides for the banding, one band slidably passing through each sleeve prior to the bands being connected about the tree. A spring member resiliently pulls the back support brace toward the rigid gripping member so that in the operative position the brace is pulled tightly against the tree and when disassociated from the tree pulled toward the stowed condition of the tree chair.
