You go to a men's suit store and get one of their disposeable zip up garment bags. Put a hanger in it. Then straighten out another hanger. Form it into a circle and tape it up near the top to keep the bag in an open position. If you also tape up the hanger opening you'd have a dust free film dryer. By the way. On ebay last week I saw the cutest Durst enlarger. Made for travel. Packed up in a suit case. You could probably rewire it for 12 volt light source and plug it into your car lighter. Also, just to keep it Leica oriented - on ebay - a Leica Film Printer - 30's vintage - apparently it took a spool of 35mm film or paper and allowed to contact print selective frames from developed negatives - seems perfect for your adventure.
