[Elecraft] "Alternate power source" for Field Day

Well,

The sun is out and the snow is melting. I know winter will still be
with us for a while, but already my mind is wandering to Field Day.

I plan on operating from a mountain top somewhere around Truckee, CA.
I understand that if I charge my batteries from some alternate source
of power - solar cells, wind power, etc. - I can get some extra points
in the Field Day contest.

So... anyone have some suggestions for a charing a K2's battery from
a solar cell array? What should I be looking for in a voltage regulator?

All suggestions welcome.
