Comments about MSR PackTowl Nano Towel - Small:

This little guy packs up REALLY small, which is why I bought it.

It's large enough to dry pots and pans, wipe down the condensation in your tent, or wash your hands and face.

It dries at a normal rate, not fast, not slow.

I considered getting a larger one but really, I'd either get an XL to use as a body towel, or this guy for everything else.

Comments about MSR PackTowl Nano Towel - Small:

I used this item in Afghanistan as a sweat rag and I would not deploy without it and a couple spares. Lightweight, highly absorbant, small, and dries quickly. I also use this in the gym, hiking, and just about any other activity. Like a good knife, this rag goes with me everywhere now.

Comments about MSR PackTowl Nano Towel - Small:

Is a very handy personal towel. Used it when hiking to dry hands, arms, etc. It dries out pretty quickly and is fairly absorbent. Love the built in pack it stuffs into. Washes out well for continued use. Could probably dry your whole body somewhat with this if you tried hard (and you are bald).

Comments about MSR PackTowl Nano Towel - Small:

This is a great little towel for backpacking. I use it on 2 - 4 day hikes, and it's great for washing up. The size is pretty decent considering the weight and packed size. Drys quick, usually hang it outside my pack when I break camp and head down the trail. When I get home I throw it in the washing machine and it is good as new afterwards.

Comments about MSR PackTowl Nano Towel - Small:

I used this primarily for a face and neck sweat rag hung on the straps of my backpack while covering miles in high heat. It was perfectly small, lightweight, and absorbent. Can't comment on use for camp kitchen, but would imagine it would be perfect for that as well.

Comments about MSR PackTowl Nano Towel - Small:

I received this as a gift and it's never left my bag. It's used for everything - napkin, face cloth, dish cloth, sweat rag, etc. It's a handy size that dries quickly -- so it's always ready to be packed up and reused.
