[pct-l] Laundry

[Edward Anderson]

Mark, 

Since I mostly live on the trail, I do my laundry there also. I usually rinse my clothes and my silk sleeping bag liner at the same time. When I take a layover day (0 day) I rinse them, not using soap (soap pollutes) - I use a plastic scrubber, if needed in, some more dirty areas.  Underwear bottoms get washed well away from water sources in my collapsible water bucket that I also use to water my horse. I am very conscious of the possibility of pathogens ending up in water sources. I also take my solar showers well away from water sources. I don't swim in possible water sources unless I have already taken a shower.

Hey PCT-L,
Quick question, when you guys are in town with access to laundry, are you
planning to do it all at once and sit around naked? I'm not planning on
bringing extra clothes so...I guess I'm just going to sit around naked when
doing laundry. But it sucks I wont be able to hang out (ha) in town when
I'm doing laundry.
