A lightweight, collapsible compact chair with back support for outdoor backpacking use is described. The chair is an improvement in stability and weight to a prior art compact chair disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,673,211. The improved chair version comprises a triangular sling fastened to the ends of three frame support members which are joined to form an inverted wye for placing on the ground. The two front support members are angled 90 degrees apart for optimum seated stability. A removable backrest is placed against the top of the sling and held by an adhesive. Each of the three frame support members may be easily connected or disconnected without need of screws or clamps. When placed closely together for packing together with the sling, the package weighs less than 24 ounces, which is very suitable for back-packing.
