Abstract
Abstract A portable duck blind camp cot and back pack consists of a plurality of telescoping frame sections each having support legs to support the cot or duck blind from the ground. With the frame sections telescoped together a pair of shoulder straps on an end section permit the device to be used as a back pack. A folding cover also formed of telescopic sections is adapted to overlay the cot to form a duck blind to completely hide the hunter and yet be quickly and easily removed when the hunter raises himself to a shooting position.
