Looking for some advice on the best way to dry wet clothes - either because it has been raining, or because you've washed the sweat/mud out of them by hand ?
I did a fantastic section hike (my first time on the AT! ) last week and I found that wet socks/bandana/T-shirt didn't try at all if I laid them out inside my tent at night, even with fast-drying fabrics. I guess they might dry better in warmer weather like August? Or if I rig a line and hang them up?
I also tried sleeping on them in a hostel bed (no laundry facilities) which was a bit unpleasant and didn't work either.
The only thing that did work was putting them on wet and then they dried pretty quickly. I'm nervous about doing this before going to sleep as I'll start off extra cold, and I'm worried that the moisture will damage the down sleeping bag?
Thanks!
