A camping shower (also called a solar shower) is true simplicity.
Take a five gallon bag of water, put it in the sun until it heats up, open a valve...and you've got a shower wherever you need it.
The water bag is usually black so the sunlight is absorbed and converted to heat and the sun is really put to work.
These showers are really great for camping and backpacking.
You can also put a solar shower by your backyard pool to wash off all that chlorine.
(Check out our Pool Shower page for more information on this).
A solar shower is also a cheap way to put the power of the sun to work.
You should be able to find one like the Super Solar Shower for under twenty bucks at most outdoor and camping stores.
I bet you'll think that's a pretty small investment when you're enjoying a hot shower and feeling a little less groggy after a long night in your tent.
Whoever said camping meant you had to "rough it"?
I'll take a little comfort if it's all the same to you.
