For an outdoor expedition, I've been impressed with the hygiene facilities available. The port-o-potties are pretty standard, but there are a lot of them, the TP is generally stocked, and they have hand washing stations outside with soap. The water is operated by foot pump.
Also available (but not pictured) are portable shower facilties operated by third parties. They cost $5 per use, but after a hot day like this one, with a heat advisory, we'd probably pay $50! The water is actually hot, as well.
We've made it through some challenging days of hills, long distance, and heat. Tomorrow will be the shortest day so far ("only" 50 miles) and hopefully cooling off.
One day at a time!
