ABSTRACT:
A cup is disclosed which is nestable on the end of a hiker's plastic bottle. The cup has a handle which is movable between a stored position in which it nests around the outside of the cup body and a use position in which the handle extends out radially from the cup sidewall. The handle has a third position, reversed from the second, in which the handle loops up over the mouth of the cup from one side on the cup lip to a diametrically opposite site to provide a bail for suspended support of the cup, e.g. for hanging the cup over a fire. A pouch may be provided for permitting the user to wear the compact stowed-handle/bottle-nested cup unit. The cup handle includes a doubled wire member with tangs that removably mount in a bracket provided on the cup sidewall. A slider is provided on the handle, this slider being movable between a position where the handle is relatively fixed to the cup and a position where the handle can be shifted or changed from one to another of its three positions.
