You need three things:

– scentless soap
– towel
– 1L water bottles. (2-3 if you want)

Fill the water bottles and keep them in your trunk.

When you get back to the car at the end of the day, and are amazingly dirty, the water will be NICE and warm in the trunk for you.

If you want you can transfer it to your water bladder and turn it upside down to provide water pressure and act like a hose.

Then just strip down and take a hobo shower in the parking lot.

Should be plenty warm and now you have soap too.

If you're smart you'll stash deodorant in a bear box nearby.

I bring a hat so that I don't look like a retard since I don't have hairgel :)

I am tacking on a quick 2-night outing onto a business trip next month and will be going right from the trail to the airport for a west coast to east coast flight. I was planning on just stinking up the plane, but this sounds like a much better idea, thanks!

Rinse off, and some clean cotton clothes for the long ride home always feels nice. Scented sunscreen works as a cover up as well if no deodorant. If carpooling bring more water and some towels.
