Abstract
A portable tree seat has a generally flat platform with a back edge for engaging a post or tree and is held in position on the tree by a rope. A flexible strap is secured to the platform near its front edge and extends to the back edge of the platform where it is adjustably secured in position by being passed through a pair of slots formed in the platform. A rigid elongated brace is attached to the flexible strap and is cradled therein between the positions of securement of the strap to the platform. When the back edge of the platform is held in position on a tree, the flexible strap may be adjusted such that the brace is held by the strap in a position engaging the tree at its back end and extending up to a position supporting the platform at its front end so that the platform is held in a substantially horizontal position. The brace is held only by the strap so that the brace may shift to its most stable position when the platform is loaded.
