What kind of product do people use to get clean at the end of a hiking day. Getting the dirt, oils, and dried sweat off adds to comfort and a good night's sleep. Probably helps insulation retain loft over time too. As a college student in the dark ages I used Dr. Bronner's, but I don't want to smell like a peppermint stick to the local bears. The perfect product would weigh zero, meet LNT standards, and not attract wildlife.
Doc Bronner's comes in "Unscented Baby-Mild."
You don't have to smell like bear breath mints.

Dead easy. Strip, jump in local creek, scrub frantically, emerge and dry fast.
And before you roll around laughing, please note we (my wife and I) have done this down to near freezing conditions. Yeah, B*****Y cold for a few seconds, but only a few. If there is no wind it is quite tolerable. Then we dive into tent and get dressed in thermals etc. Stove, soup, … Yep. And yes, you do feel clean!
Cheers
