WMB Tests MytiMug, Hunka and Numo camping mat

By Ashleigh Naysmith

Ultralight essentials that pack into a compact form, perfect for the intrepid traveler. Ready yourself for a journey with boundless potential.

You can do just about everything with [the MytiMug] - cook in it, eat out of it and drink from it. Now that is space saving!|Another superb value offering from Alpkit. We used [the Numo] down to 0°C to great effect.|For the money [the Hunka] really can't be beaten . The small pack size and built-in stuff sack are a very welcome bonus.
