<div>Hi Kris,</div>
<div>Hygiene on the trail:</div>
<div>I highly recommend washing off at the end of the day with your hankerchief or pack towel, with just water. Except in the extrememly dry conditions along the trail, I was capable of cleaning off nearly everyday. Streams make for good jump in spots, or you can put water in a pan and rinse off like that. It makes such a big difference. Your not sticky when you get into your bag. It also helps with getting hitches, in my opinion(you know, not have brown swashes of dirt across face, neck, legs and every other visible part of your body) and if your not staying in town, you can hang out clean-enough without distrupting the town.

<div>Baby wipes means more to pack out. Don't bother with soap, its extra weight and your going to be dirty soon after.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Hope that helps.</div>
