Perfume, cologne, etc. on the trails?
Posted: Dec 24 2010 10:24 am
It was nowhere near the worst I've experienced on the trail, but having just returned from a hike in which I was almost wafted away by the perfume of an obvious "city hiker"(no water bottle, flat shoes, oblivious to the surroundings) as she passed by, it got me to thinking what other HAZ'ers would think. After a quick search and not finding a previous thread or poll I figured I'd throw down the gauntlet...
Let the jousting begin.
FYI, option #2 is my choice... while a basic deodorant is fine, ok, probably a good thing
if it is noticeable just in passing, it's too much. But then I get headaches from smoke, perfumes, etc. in confined areas anyway.
Ok, have at it... :STP:
And please, don't hold back your horror stories... like someone reeking so bad of perfume you were afraid of an explosion if they got too close to the campfire.
