Luckily there are these awesome wilderness wipes we like to use when we go backpacking. They don’t replace showers, but it is better than nothing. I love these because they are not scented, which is extremely important in the outdoors. Scented wipes can really make you a target for bugs!

Smartwool has some of the warmest best quality base layers out there. I love how they keep me nice and warm in the winter.

Please note that you do need a monthly subscription for this to work.
