I have a Ameristep Penthouse, i store it in the backpack it came in, but what your doing I can't see a problem in it. I might put earth scent wafers in it to boot, can't hurt a thing imo. I put my blind out turkey season and its still out there, will hunt deer from it here before long, and I will be sure to bring it in and put it in the backpack, should have brought it in right after Turkey season, I don't think it faded much if any, thats my biggest concern when it is left out in the summer, sun hitting it, although it was pretty much in the shade.
