Abstract: A portable tent having an interior, mesh-like netting portion, and an outer, waterproof canvas covering which may double as a poncho. The tent requires no assembly components other than stakes to affix the bottom of the tent to the ground and a top securing plate which is removably secured to a support object such as a tree limb. The top metal plate has a plurality of fastening rings on its upper and lower sides and is tied to the object situated substantially above the place where the tent is to be erected. A unique flexible support ring is woven into the fabric of the interior netting portion to support the sides of the tent structure. An object such as a cellular telephone or a flashlight may be suspended from an interior suspension ring situated on the bottom side of the plate via twine or string to allow the occupant to conveniently protect valuable or electronic accessories or to provide hands-free illumination from above during tent assembly.
