Water Supply

[GflGdog]

My sink drains to an exterior 4 gal clear collapsable container. Packs small. I never let it get more than 1/3 full. It's honest but a bit unsightly. I need to increase the length of tube so I can hide the container behind the wheel. An opaque container would be better. It is emptied into a fire pit if there is one. My theory is that doing so precludes birds and small critters from being attracted to any tiny bits of food that may be in the water and that subsequent campsite users would not be affected. Hopefully I am not wrong on this.

Pretty similar to mine only mine is blue and somewhat opaque. Hose is long enough I can slide it behind the tire.View attachment 1320928

I would think in bear country, the food smells would stick around. Better to dump in a latrine.
