I have absolutely learned SO MUCH from you. I have never been on a long hike or a backpacking trip. But we camp frequently, and there are tiny hikes involved. I've learned so many helpful things from you, and im so grateful. Thanks for being blunt, but not ever lude, lol. (Note, we carry out all waste, regardless of where we stay.)

@Utahraptor43 9 месяцев назад

Awesome video lol. No squatting for me. I got a collapsible stool (1.5 lbs), cut a 5x5 inch hole in the seat, attach a compostable bag. Dig cathole and bury it. If in an area where you can't dig/bury, its already in a bag for packing out. When I get to camp, I have a stool to sit on.

Like I get the whole pack it pack out, but I think mother nature sheds a tear when you use TWO PLASTIC bags to remove something that has been happening outside for all of time minus the last 200 years or so.

Mother nature said it's OK as long as you only single bag it and then sneak it into the most annoying co-hikers pack when they are sleeping

I never used two plastic bags. I generally have a supply of old or reused big zip lock bags. When I go backpacking I bring one of those with a paper bag inside. At least I can recycle the inner bag with used tp.

@striveprosper295 8 месяцев назад

I use a bidet but also take a roll of toilet paper. The use biodegrable brands so i NEVER carry out. Dig hole and use biodegradable toilet paper use the bidet and clean up again with toilet paper and bury it. And always use soap and water guys. But these personal preferences

@Frindleeguy 6 месяцев назад

Bidet only works if you use a hand, or at least something for the peanut butter. Room temperature water at 7 psi does not clean peanut butter off a porous surface. There are literally cultures on earth where there is a hand you never touch for that reason.

@GymmyJosh 6 месяцев назад

In Ontario we have to pack out our TP by law, maybe the whole load, I don't know for sure. I can't fathom how dumping more plastic in a landfill rather than just burying some TP is better for the environment. Should we agree on a system where we leave a stick there afterwards poking straight up to show people the area is occupied?

@elisebrown5157 3 месяца назад

Is there a guideline for how far off the trail you go, or how far from a water source you should be? Also, that wag bag seems like an AWFUL lot of plastic waste just to pack out something that's pretty natural. I'd argue that burying, along with burying some biodegradable TP, is the much more eco-friendly option. I might keep a wag bag in the glove compartment, however, just in case of a really long traffic jam.

@cwesley2005 Год назад

For a split second I thought I was saying opaque wrong my entire life.

@lazrface Месяц назад

Actually hand sanitizer, when used appropriately, is more effective and efficient than soap at killing germs. Soap is better at grime and debris though, for obvious reasons.

@mattholomule7810 Год назад

Only a few minutes in, I realized that for thousands and thousands of years people have been pooping in the woods, without doing any of this. There were no bottle bidets or even toilet paper. This is simply quite amazing that it has come to this

@sorareracunic269 Год назад

@mikec5309 Год назад

While I agree about being responsible and making it so everyone who wants can enjoy the out doors, the irony is not lost on me about using a lot of plastic to be thrown into a landfill.

@supernova82 10 месяцев назад

Yeah there was a reason that diseases were common and streets were filthy at that time lol.

@mattholomule7810 10 месяцев назад

@JasperJanssen 7 месяцев назад

Thing is, there weren’t 8 billion of us at the time, and thus also not as many hundreds of millions popping in the woods.

@jessica-fx3uh Год назад

Dig more holes?

@vasiliipopov416 Год назад

Why can't you bury the paper in the same hole? If it's not a wet wipe it'll rot safely with no trace

@mokster5 Год назад

Yeah I thought that was interesting. I’ve always buried my tp, though I’ve heard some places require you to pack it out

@hanwagu9967 Год назад

it's because toilet paper can take 1-3 years to break down in the woods not to mention lasting affects of some of the chemicals. So, if you are going to bury it in the woods, then at least get biodegrable toilet paper which breaks down quicker. Althouh, it still takes longer than when you flush it down the toilet and gets chemcially treated at the sewer treatment facility.

@danielpittman889 Год назад

Animals often will dig it up, and then there's tp all over the place.

.... "Less TP for your Bunghole" ... And the environment .. Most areas littered with TP on the surface are known as "(Insert State) wildflowers" ... .. Really going to get the Ultra lighters in a tizzy over carrying a foot long piece of PVC with caps ... that must be heavier than their packs ....
