4 days hiking in the Presidential Range

fucking brutal, as it rained all four days and our rain cover tents weren't working. I smelt like shit on the way back I know it but so did everyone else.

I didn't shower for 12 days this summer while out festival hopping, after 4 day it stopped bothering me that I was dirty haha.

Its pretty normal for me for me not to shower Tuesday-Friday as I don't have time to run back to my dorm an shower. Right now I'm 5 days w/o showering cause I've just been constantly working on my projects for finals next week, but I packed a bunch of spare shirts so I kinda feel clean lol. Architecture you fuckin hate it an love it all at the same time haha

pre puberty: over a week, didnt get too gross smelling usually
post puberty: like 4 days probably, and that's only when i'm at my cabin and swimming twice a day. my hair is so thick that the grease buildup after a few days looks and smells horrible, so i havent missed a shower in probably 3 monthes

about a month, working as a summer camp counselor. I kept my tipi in line by threatening to fart in it and then following through once or twice. It was a good time.

THIS

I don't understand why some people take a shower in the am and then another one in the pm... not like you're going to get dirty while sleeping...

during the summer i can go LOOONG periods like more than two weeks without showering but that's because nobody else is showering and nobody's ever at their own house. during the school year, a few days tops.

Two and a half weeks. Was working a forest fire, so sweating my balls off, covered in ash and dirt, sleeping in a sleeping bag in the middle of the mountians at night. Yea I really didn't smell or look good.

Pretty much this, I hated water when I was little. When I was in the bath my parents would have to dump a jug of water on my head when I wasn't looking so they could wash my hair. I also had to drop out of swimming lessons because I wouldn't go near the pool.

As for more recently, about a week and a half. I had the flu and after fourish days realized I probably should shower. Got up and went into the bathroom, turned on the water, got in the shower, after about ten seconds my vision went black and I started to pass out and smashed my shin against the edge of the tub. turned off the water, went back to my room, curled up in bed soaking wet and proceeded to not move for a few more days.

18 days on a back packing trip. Didnt even get to get in a lake or anything. Hiked 60+ miles, only had two maybe three sets of clothes / socks / underwear

probably 11 living my normal life. During a summer break or something stupid. not sure why it happened, but it did. Before I hit puberty so really, it didnt matter.

Last year I went two full weeks while at my friends lake house. Wasn't bad at all actually, swimming tended to keep me remotely clean

The real question here is HOW did you go backpacking for 18 days and only cover 3 miles per day? Average walking pace = 3 mph. What did you do for the other 23 hours in a day? That leaves 414 hours that you had to do SOMETHING on your "backpacking" trip.
