A portable blind which is characterized in a preferred embodiment by a length of camouflage material provided with a desired camouflage pattern, which material is stretched between multiple supports embedded in the ground, to define discreet panels and conceal a hunter or observer. The camouflage material can be fitted with a drawstring around the top edge thereof and is characterized by cloth or netting. Different camouflage patterns may be provided on the front and back of the camouflage material, in order to facilitate reversing the camouflage panels to accord with the hunting or observation terrain. In a most preferred embodiment, the elongated supports include a bottom member, a receptacle fitted to the top end of the bottom member for receiving the bottom end of a corresponding top member and an elastic band connecting the bottom end of the top member to the top end of the bottom member. Alternatively, the bottom member may be telescoped into the top member to disassemble the blind, and extended from the bottom member to deploy the blind. Accordingly, the portable blind may be disassembled, with the top member disengaged from the bottom member or the bottom member telescoped inside the top member and the camouflage material rolled on the top and bottom members and secured in this configuration and to the belt of the hunter or observer, by means of loop-pile fasteners.
A portable blind for concealing an observer, comprising at least two elongated supports for insertion in the ground in spaced, upward-standing relationship, said supports each characterized by a bottom member having one end sharpened and a receptacle provided on the opposite end of said bottom member, a top member having one end adapted for insertion in said receptacle and the opposite end of said top member sharpened and an elastic band connecting said one end of said top member and said opposite end of said bottom member for biasing said top member in said receptacle;
A portable blind for concealing an observer, comprising at least two elongated supports for insertion in the ground in spaced, upward-standing relationship, said supports each characterized by an outside member having a sharp free end for selective insertion in the ground, an inside member slidably disposed in the opposite end of said outside member in telescoping relationship and having a sharpened extending end for selective insertion in the ground;
