[Philmont]: Hair washing

Jason wrote regarding washing of hands:

Go to the sump. Place your Nalgene water bottle between your legs. Unscrew
the cap just enough so it would stay on. Turn the bottle upside down or
side ways. Let the water trickle out while you scrub your hands with a
drop of campsuds. Try to make sure the water and suds go down the sump.

In '96 I did a trek when I was having my midlife crisis and had let my hair
grow about 20 inches long. Wore it in a braid (or 2 like Willie Nelson!)
most of the time. I got real good at washing it over a sump and could
usually get it done with just 2 liters of water and barely spill a drop on
the ground.
