On a tour, on a dripping-hot day, one of the group passed up a chance
to take a shower just because he didn't have a towel.
You can dry yourself quite thoroughly with your washrag -- just start
at the top and keep wringing it out.
Wet hair doesn't squeegee well, but you can comb the water out. And
tangles are easier to get out if water is still draining through them.
