Hi Dan

I picked up very small electric clippers at a drug store and had it in our
bounce box.  I think it might have even run on AA batteries.  

There are heavy duty clippers at the Saufleys.  At most hotels you can
either get a razor at the front desk, or from a vending machine, but you're
right, that's a problem for more than few days growth.

There's no single solution other than to bounce your clippers to every town,
but a combination of the ones you listed works.  

I suppose you could always melt the hair off with a lighter - but that seems
like it might possibly be a terrible idea.  I knew a kid in school who
burned his nose hairs off with a snort from his zippo.  He loved the smell
of burning nose hair in the morning.
