[philmont] Alcohol wipes

I wonder if anyone can recommend unscented versions of 2 items:
   
  1. Foot powder
  2. Pre-moistened wipes (Cottonelle)
   
  Thanks.

  I have never used foot powder to keep my feet dry in the million years I've been hiking the gazillion miles. In the first place, it doesn't keep them dry. In the second place it just makes a gooey mess. I like clean feet.
   
  What I have used is unscented. It's rubbing alcohol. I orefer a small bottle and to use my hand, but WalMart sells pre moistened wipes for injections in boxes of 100 for $1.45. It might take more than one wipe, but so what? they are also excellent for cleaning glasses.
   
  During a hiking break. Remove boots and socks and rub down with these and it is not only
  refreshing but cleans the sweat and salt residue off the feet. Quite enjoyable in fact.
   
  And no smell other than the rubbing alcohol itself.
   
  It's worked of me for over 50 years and it is the same method Colin Fletcher of The Complete Walker used. If it's good enough of those two reprobates, it's good enough for youngsters too.
