Camp showers


This is a pretty cool thing, a water heater powered by propane. It sucks water from any water source and heats it.


Then you can use this tent to suspend the hose on the inside. This isn't particularly shamey- but is a good solution for height. Without having to get oversized PVC.


This also would work, 29.99 from this site.

FYI- this is posted by Jys, after setting up Marks ability to post.

Wouldn't it be cheaper just to rig up some kind of solar water heater? Just get a big plastic tub with a clear lid and sit it in the sun all day (maybe even have it double as your grey water evap)... Drop $50 on a pump with a $10 granny-shower-head at one end. Since the playa gets cold at night, you probably couldn't shower in the morning, but you could probably space out the showers mid afternoon.

Just a thought. You could also buy like 5 of these (http://www.solarhome.org/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&Category=33) and save money over that propane beast.
