Re: Portable Camping Showers
I use one of those 12v shower units that are available from camping stores for around $20. They generally last around 12 months so I have a spare one.
8 months of the year out here you can use the water straight out of the jerry can or water tank in the trailer. Occaisionally you might need to put it in the shade to cool down or wait until dark to shower. The other two months of the year I chuck a galvanised bucket onto the camp fire and heat up a enough water for a quick shower.
I have a shower tent for the missus which is one of those nylon types with external frame. I set it up next to the trailer so it's nice and close for her. I have two wooden mats, one for inside the tent and one for outside. You did a hole, put the mat and tent on top, water falls through into hole, feet don't get muddy.
If I'm out bush without the missus I'll drop the pump straight into a container with some water and stand next to the car and have a quick tub.
