I was at Big Bend National Park in West Texas. They had no showers. So only solution was using the bath house sink as a shower. No problem.

The Alaska Club had a special on a one week pass recently... You could access showers there. The Alaska Club One Week Pass

Hey, perfect if the pass didn't expire August 8th. I'll be there August 5th-12th!

I'll keep it bookmarked though and see what their regular one-week pass price is once I get there. Thanks!

You might call them and explain when you'll be here... They may cut you a deal or something...

Look for a full-service truckstop near where you are camping?

I have always brought 5 gals of water when ever I go camping in such. It give fresh water for the dogs, and allows me to wash up a bit. It's not a shower, but it works for me.

I don't think I've seen anything like that up here. Maybe there are some, but the only thing that comes close are the full-service roadhouses and mercantiles like in Kenny Lake.

Centennial Campground at Muldoon and the Glenn apparently has showers for $5 a pop.

Good ideas, I'll call up the AKClub and see if they'll do that.. Centennial as a back-up plan.

Kaul.... I can surely survive a week without a real shower. Strongly prefer to shower.. are you really going to insult me on that note?
