The scout mug is a useful vessel that will work for any scout, traveller or lover of challenging outdoor expeditions. It is a simple but very useful accessory on various outdoor excursions and comes in many forms. The main purpose of the scout mug is to allow you to comfortably consume drinks outdoors, both hot and cold.
The classic metal scout mug is one of the most popular types. It is characterised by its resistance to damage and durability. It is usually made of aluminium, stainless steel or enamelled sheet metal. Thanks to this, such a mug is lightweight and at the same time durable, it does not break, shatter or deform. It is very suitable for camping, camping or mountain expeditions. Importantly, it is possible to boil water in such a mug directly over a campfire or on a burner and tourist cooker. Models made of plastic are also available. They won't work well for boiling, but they have another advantage - they can be folded up to a compact size so that they fit into any backpack.
Many models of Scout mugs are equipped with additional useful features. Metal mugs often use folding handles, making them smaller and easier to carry. Some Scout mugs have been fitted with handles which, when folded, allow the mug to be attached to a rucksack. There are also models with measuring cups to measure the amount of water or cooking ingredients needed.
A scout mug is a practical piece of equipment that will prove useful not only on field trips. Such a versatile and durable vessel in the metal version will successfully serve not only for drinking, but also for heating drinks in the field. The compact size and foldable handle mean that the mug does not take up much space and will be convenient to transport.
