A few years ago I went on an end of season rafting trip down the GC...16 days. A company called OARS operating out of Flagstaff....friends joked that I thought there was a W and an H missing which is why I went on the trip.
Environmental concerns meant that all people take out ALL their rubbish. Pee in the river. Defecate in the groover, several of which, when full, are secured in the ‘trash’ raft.
I used a nail brush, scrubbed vigorously both before and after ablutions, same with dining. Any backpacking trip I use the nail brush more than anything else in my gear list, then dispose of after every trip.
Using public loos I go in n out of doors using my elbows.
There’s some dirty folks around with unhygienic habits
