Whoa….
After cave-camping without water except for food for a week life is still good,
and squizzin’ still worth it.
But there is not going to be that little water. Besides – options are limited

So OKAY – all is good and get it on!

Mostly what we used that hose for last year was to clean off the cooking equipment that you and the other TCR cooks used. Are you suggesting that we skip that task this year, since you'd rather wait and clean everything after you get home? ;-)Rod-Original Message-

Surely we’re cavers and can wait ‘til we get home to clean off? Would save a
