Abstract: An embodiment is a lightweight, packable seat that includes a seat platform, two shafts for support, straps with respective buckles, or similar, that secure the seat to a vertical object, such as a tree. The seat may be made of a lightweight flexible material that is held in a stiff orientation that extends outward from the tree through coupling to the upper strap at the proximal end of the seat and the shafts at a distal end of the seat, where the shafts project downward toward a proximal location at the tree at the lower strap. Use of the lower strap means that the shafts do not contact a ground surface, thereby providing stability. The shafts may be made of composites or aluminum, for example, such that the entire weight of the seat may weigh just a few ounces while exhibiting strengths and stability.
