For you 5th Gen Campers out there....

I thought I would share this neat little set up as it's a great alternative, to a lake/river/ocean or simply being dirty for a couple of days! It's a compact shower system at a reasonable price. Details are below:

lol! Nothing like the rays of sun as your heater Pat (you know hippy style). When there is no sun, I guess you would have to make some form of heating device. Pat, knowing you and your handy skills, I bet you could come up with something neat :boink: or buy something like this......?

I just use a SunShower. Learned I can shower, shave, wash my hair and brush my teeth with less than 2 gal when I need to.

An ad for the new Helio Pressure Shower appeared a couple of months ago in Backpacker Magazine. It's not particularly cheap, and I can't say anything about it - either good or bad - since I haven't seen or tried the product. It would be a lot cheaper to just stay stinky, but She Who Speaks With Authority tells me that after living in the car for a few days, one of these might be a prudent (if not prurient) purchase. One nice thing is that it's pressure-feed, so no need to find a place to hang it for gravity-feed, plus it folds down pretty small and light.

Nice! I really like the looks of the Nemo shower. They must have just came out with these.

With something like that you can save a lot of space and weight over a hard plastic jug. With all of the other gear I haul around on camping trips space/weight are important to me. (I also have a couple Nemo tents and their products are awesome.)

Normally on camping trips I too use a Sunshower. They come in handy for a lot of things like washing dishes or simply washing up the days activities. An issue though is that since it's gravity fed you always have to hang it, and the hose isn't very long. They do roll up pretty small though and pack easily.

Dang. I just went out to search on a possible purchase of the Helio Shower... can't find any. Either not in stock or back-ordered. I'll be looking for one of these... thanks for the tip!
