It does appear that most hides seem to have been designed and built by
umpa lumpas. One way to provide a view everone can use is to install
vertical slits - this does restrict sideways movement though. A large
'window' space, backed by a sit down bench does help, although the
balance betwween binocular users and scope users is hard to find. Most
importantly is backing the viewing space with an internal wall as a
shilouette would seem to be the most alarming of sights. That and
covering the access to the hide so everything isn't gone when one
eventually gets there.....
Good luck!
