Abstract
An improved awning assembly for a recreational vehicle has the awning rolled around a roller tube and stowed against a wall. Support arms pivot upwardly to a stowed and latched position parallel with the roller tube and pivot downwardly therefrom. The support arms are attached to hooks or a latching assembly on the vehicle. Rafter arms slide in a channel at the wall and are positioned to tension the awning. The awning provides a compact and attractive assembly in the stowed position and is easily erected by one person.
