We boondock alot and I like taking showers outside. I first tried shower shoes, no go! They water shoes, no go!! Laid down a tarp, not happening!!! Took the portable step, DW said that wasn't happening!!!!
So I took an old waterheater pan and added a "grate" made from some "fake" wood decking, I had laying around. This is what I came up with. Note that I staggered the support bracing underneath for drainage. Also made the grate into two parts. Why?? 
Mind you, I still have to add a reducer with a bib for the grey water hose. No more standing or puddling water near the 5er.

We do ad-hock mission work (Storm Damage Cleanup) & often park on Church or storm damaged properties where water is usually available without a sewer hookup.
So using the outside shower (with screen  ) allows us 10-15 days between dump station runs. We use a Semi Trailer mud flap for a shower mat which doubles as a hitch cover.

How do you keep your feet clean after you take that first step off your platform?
