Abstract
An improvement in a lightweight camper's tent having a special combination of entry and support means wherein the support means opens and closes to permit the camper to enter and erect the canopies of the tent from the inside after entry. This arrangement is unique and allows the camper the alternative of sleeping in the open until the weather dictates that the tent be closed and this said closing may then be accomplished from the inside.
