Abstract
A shelter includes a frame structure with a plurality of pole structures. In some embodiments, a telescoping pole structure includes a shell pole portion extending along a longitudinal axis, a sleeve fixed to the shell pole portion, and an inner pole portion extending along the longitudinal axis and positioned at least partially within the shell pole portion and at least partially within the sleeve. The inner pole portion slides telescopically relative to the shell pole portion. The sleeve may be rotatable and it may include an engagement surface having one or more surface positions for contacting a detent element attached to the inner pole portion. Contact between the detent element and each of the one or more surface positions prevents the inner pole portion from moving telescopically into the shell pole portion. Turning the sleeve may extend or retract the telescoping pole structure.
