How to poop outdoors in a way that won’t harm the environment and other hikers
-
I used to use a bread bag but I'm not supposed to put those in the vault toilets. The WAG bag is supposedly compostable and has a gel in it so your waste doesn't get in your pack. They are definitely cool.
Yeah I use the WAG bags but WAG doesn't sound cool. "Poop bag" or "shit bag" sounds much better
-
You should get a bag of holding
The thought of turning a bag of holding inside out to dump out its contents when it was used exclusively as a toilet is horrifying

And everyone needs a good set of heel rocks.

*bag of holing
*portable hole

A 15cm (6 inch) deep hole 30m (100 feet) from the trail or water.
Will someone tell the animals ?

If you come to Colorado DO NOT dig cat holes. Our environment will not decompose your waste before someone else needs to dig one.
WAG bag, every time. They are not expensive.
leave. no. trace.
edit: #2, I don't think #1 is going to do much to the environment, just don't pee in the creek. Unless you're upstream from Coors it'll make the beer taste better.
Have the animals been informed of this ?

DO NOT use a bag of holding for this, you will regret it.

There's a lot of bad shit in our poop that isn't in most wild animal shit.
Particularly transmissible diseases for other humans.

Is there a way to poop outdoors in a way that will harm my enemies?
wrote on last edited by [email protected]Leave it less than six feet away from where they commonly walk around barefoot and they could get hookworm. If I remember the Radio Lab correctly anyway.

Yeah, you gotta get the bag of holeding instead

I poop in the middle of the trail I am hiking to assert dominance over the other hikers
Are you a horse?

*bag of holing
If you get a hold of such a bag, one with a whole hole in its hold, whatever you do, don't place a whole other bag of holing with a hole in it, inside it.

I've tried carrying a hole around in a bag but the darn thing always seems to get lost when it comes time to use it.
You obviously have to plant it in the ground first, silly!

Or a bag of whole dung

I shit just fine in CO with holes. Year after year I even watched some of my shit spots grow beautiful flowers.
You don't own Colorado and it was there long before you. It will be there long after you. Remote forests handle our shit just fine. Dig deep enough and away from the trail or water, near some plants, and they will gobble it up no problem. The number of human hikers in remote places is minuscule.
A bit wild to demand people shit in synthetic plastic bags they have to purchase and dump them in a landfill. "Leave no trace -- except the giant plastic waste sites scarring the landscape everywhere"
Now if you're talking park trails and other heavily populated places? That's different. It also isn't "Colorado" it is a specific sub-specification.
