Abstract: A seat, suitable for outdoor use, together with methods for preparing and using the same. The seat includes first and second structural members that can be pivotally coupled to each other at opposing first and second pivot points such that the first and second structural members can selectively rotate about and between open and closed positions. The seat also includes a seat covering positioned across at least a portion of the seating area between the first and second structural members such that the seat covering defines a continuous loop extending between the first and second structural members and wrapping around the top portions of the first and second structural members to define a seating surface.

Abstract: A hunting blind having adjustable height is described herein. The height of the hunting blind may be adjusted to fully or partially hide a hunter from their prey. In one embodiment, the height is adjusted through the use of adjustable length stabilization rods. To provide support for the blind's top edge while in use, in one example, a support rod is inserted through a channel disposed in or near the top edge of the hunting blind. The support rod may also be used to secure the hunting blind to a tree through the use of a strap wrapped around the tree, whereas the support rod is secured to the strap.
