Now I've got my tent on route I'm starting to worry about having a poo while out camping :) viewtopic.php?f=54&t=9649

Just a couple or three other items to deal with now;

Mattresses :)

Tent lighting (I think I'll start another topic on this) :thumbup:

And the thing that's been really playing on my mind is #2's :p What do you do if you need a poo :?: :oops: :) (probably needs its own topic as well) :D
I'm sure that there is plenty of opportunity for using public toilets, garage toilets, Mcdonalds etc but what's happening on those occasions that you are to far from civilisation to find some white porcelain to sit down on :?: :)

I do have a thing called a 'Kampa Khazi' that we set up in the garden for all the kids to use when we have the children’s summer garden parties :) But to be fair it's a bit large to be carried around in the back of my truck just for one or two nights camping :| :)

SO WHY :?:
 
Well I have one of these and a shovel, but only really of use when away from civilization :lol: :lol:

as for tent lighting I bought a remote control battery operated 5 LED light with a magnetic base (see link below) and fixed a metal strip to the roof of the Maggi tent, it works a treat, climb the ladder, undo the flap and press the remote and Let there be light! no good if you've got a canvas ground tent though. :thumbdown:

The simplest answer (assuming you're not on a site with facilities) is take you spade to a private spot, make a small hole and put your no. 2 in that, cover it up again
Really :shock: :!: So you wouldn't bag it & transport it for disposal @ a later date :?:

You might find the book 'how to shit in the woods' a funny read :)
:lol: :lol: :lol: I don't do alot of reading, but that sounds like a good'un :thumbup:

If I went somewhere where human waste was a problem then yes you could put your no. 2 in a bag and pack it out but I'm not likely to find myself anywhere like that tbh. Frozen or rocky ground can be a bit of a challenge :mrgreen:
 
a spade thats all you need.
When I was doing geological surveying in West Greenland in the arctic region, the nearest porcelain cr@pper was a 45min chopper ride away!

moss is a great substitute for bogroll too
but first make sure its not an ants nest! - yes i forgot to check once....
 
Hey Chas, nice Bumper Dumper. Is it heated from the tow bar electrics?

Steve, you really haven't done any camping have you?

In freezing climes, shove a stick in it and then in the morning you'll have a poopsicle which is much easier to get to grips with :lol:

Oh yes! and I've still got the marks to prove it :lol:
 
Hilarious :lol: :lol:

It takes a certain kind of survival specialist and a youtube video to tell you.
"Don't dig a poo hole deeper than 6 inches!"

Now I finally know why that army shovel is just about 6 inches.

Hilarious
 
Just remember, if you use the cat method (ie dig a hole, take a dump and cover it up) to burn the bog roll you've used before you cover it all up (stand up-wind though :) ) or else it ends up blowing in the wind and that's just gross.

For SWMBO I have a poep-stoel which is one of those fold up fishing stools with a hole cut in the seat!
 
6 inches that all mmmmmmm

I may need a deeper hole than that.

Maybe I should dig 2 or 3 and once the one is full move on to the next and so on.


Poo in a bag and take it with you!!!! No chance of mine traveling with me any where. Once deposited its gone for good I never ever ever want to see it again.

Anyway different type need different attention.
The Different Types Of Poop

Ghost Poop ~~ You know you've pooped. There's poop on the toilet paper, but no poop in the bowl.
Teflon Coated Poop ~~ Comes out so slick, clean and easy that you don't feel it. No traces of poop on the toilet paper. You have to look in the toilet bowl to be sure you did it!

Gooey Poop ~~ This has the consistency of hot tar. You wipe your butt 12 times and it still doesn't come clean. You end up putting toilet paper in your underwear so you don't stain it. This poop leaves permanent skid marks in the toilet.

Second Thought Poop ~~ You're all done wiping your butt and you're about to stand up when you realize it...you've got some more.

Pop a Vein in Your Forehead Poop ~~ This kind is the kind of poop that killed Elvis. It doesn't come until you're all sweaty, trembling and purple from straining so hard.

Bali Belly Poop ~~ You poop so much you lose 5 kilos.

Right Now Poop ~~ You better be within 10 seconds of a toilet. Usually it has its head out before you get your pants down.

King Kong or Commode Choker Poop ~~ This poop is so big that you know it won't go down the toilet unless you break it into smaller chunks. A coat hanger works well. This kind of poop usually happens at someone else's house.

Wet Cheeks Poop ~~ This poop hits the water sideways and makes a BIG splash that gets your butt wet.

Wish Poop ~~ You sit there all cramped up and fart a few times, but no poop!

Cement Block or Oh God Poop ~~ You wish you'd gotten a spinal block before you poop.

Snake Poop ~~ This poop is fairly soft and about as big around as your thumb and at least three feet long.

Cork Poop (Also Known as Floater Poop) ~~ Even after the third flush, it's still floating in there. My god! How do I get rid of it? This poop usually happens at someone else's house.

Mexican Food Poop (also called Screamers) ~ You'll know it's alright to eat again when your butthole stops burning.

Beer Drunk Poop ~~ This happens the day after the night before. Normally your poop doesn't smell too bad, but this poop is BAD. Usually there's somebody standing outside to use the bathroom. This kind of poop also usually happens at someone else's house.

The Frightened Turtle ~~ The kind of poop that just pokes its head out then quickly goes back in.

The Bungee Poop ~~ The kind of poop that just hangs off your butt before it falls into the water.

The Ring of Fire Poop ~~ The kind of poop where you eat really spicy food and your butthole feels like the inside of a cigarette lighter.

The Crippler ~~ The kind of poop where you have to sit on the toilet so long your legs go numb from the waist down.

The Big Bobber ~~ The kind of poop that no matter how many times you flush it always floats back to the surface.

The Chitty Chitty Bang Bang ~~ The kind of poop that hits you when you're trapped in your car in a traffic jam.

I think turds must be weightless, weigh yourself before and after, . . . no difference :confusion-confused:
 
Gary, no good going all coy. You started this with your mention of a 'fishing stool'. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

We're just adding to your list.
