How will my camper maintain their hygiene in the backcountry?

Expedition Camper Hygiene

Though campers will not have access to showers during their trip, keeping clean in the backcountry is one of the best ways we can keep everyone safe and healthy. We require hand washing after every bathroom use and before handling or eating any food. We also mandate glove use while helping in the kitchen and while preparing group food. 

We will teach all campers about "Leave No Trace" principles that help guide us for backcountry bathroom use and keeping hygiene as a top priority while in different settings.
