A unitary pneumatic base chamber in pneumatic communication with a series of arcuate hoops extending upwardly and generally orthogonally relative to the base chamber when the base chamber and hoops are in an inflated configuration. Flexible mesh web panels are mounted coextensively between the hoop members and base chamber member, including a rear and forward flap construction closing off the ends of the tent when in an erected configuration. The front flap includes a plurality of flap panels, with a central zipper for selective securement of the flap panels in a closed configuration. A transport container is utilized for receiving the tent structure when in deflated configuration, and further includes a pocket for mounting a manual pump and fluid impermeable cover web. Modifications of the invention include the base chamber member formed with spaced parallel horizontal through-extending pockets intercommunicating with vertical pockets, wherein each pocket receives a leg member, wherein the leg members are securable together to provide for a reinforcing spine to maintain structural integrity of the organization during partial deflation and potential leakage of the tent structure.
