How did the battery do with that many winch pulls? I have always wandered if I had to winch myself out of a trail like the Rubicon would a single battery due the job?

Now I can see continuous use of winch through out the trail with one single dry cell battery. However during the evenings we both had all of our lights on, headlight, offroad lights and roof lights. I would probably keep those lights off if I was only on a single.

Waterless bath, baby wipes, jumping in the water near by (use Bio-Eco soap like Wonder Soap & etc...), or just no shower at all sometimes
. Sometimes the evening or morning temperature can be so low that the last thing you can think of is to shower.
I actually have a 2.5Gal portable pressure washer that can be use to wash dishes, and basic wash of hair, and etc.
Sometime the portable shower is just not an option when water is must conserved for survival reasons.
