Abstract

A hunting blind is constructed of a set of reflectively mirrored wall panels with a camouflaged top cover, to form a rectangular structure which reflects the surrounding environment to conceal the structure of the blind. The wall panels are each preferably formed of a rigid sheet of reinforced closed cell foam material, with a sheet of mirrored clear plastic material bonded to one surface of the foam sheet. The mirrored surface of the plastic sheet is preferably secured directly to the foam sheet, thereby sandwiching the mirrored surface between the overlying clear plastic material and the foam panel to protect the mirrored surface from damage. The wall panels are rigidly but removably connected together with corner channel members to form a rigid, inflexible structure. A top closure or roof may be formed of a flexible camouflage sheet, or alternatively of rigid foam sheet having a camouflage pattern thereon. Other features, including internal anchor flaps, viewing ports and openable top hatches, a lower door for a hunting dog, and storage and shelf areas, may be provided as desired. The entire structure is easily transportable by disassembling the panels at the corner channel connecting members and removing the top cover, passing some hanging straps through the open view ports, and passing a pole through the straps to carry the disassembled structure using the central pole.
