Abstract: A tent has an elongate shell of limp material and a pair of self-erecting frames movable between an erect configuration in which the frames are capable of supporting the shell to define an interior space of the shell and a collapsed configuration in which the shell is compacted and stored in a storage bag. Each of the self-erecting frames comprises a plurality of frame members having an upper end and a lower end. A connecting system connects the upper ends of the frame members and biases the lower ends of the frame members apart to move the frame to its erect configuration. The frame members are movable against the bias of the connecting system to move the frame from its erect configuration to its collapsed configuration. In another embodiment, a portion of the shell comprises a mesh window panel to permit air flow in and out of the interior space of the tent. A window flap is connected to the shell adjacent the window panel for covering the window panel.
