Find a convenient rock/fallen tree to hide behind, dig a hole and squat away

 

[MikeE]

Ziploc bag and a piece of packing strap just the right size to keep it open. Carry in,Zip up and carry out!





















Not had to do that for a long while!
Lean back on a tree over a hole is my usual trick now!

Squatting is apparently easier and better for you

Sometimes, do you wish you never looked something up even to confirm something you thought already true?

Edit - that's an unfortunate forum name, given the topic!

At my age, and with a bad back and knackered knees, my best option for a comfortable poo experience is a Porta Potty.

Glad this one is not photo heavy!

[andybysea]

My god there's health benefit's in poo postions!

 

[Miyagi]

I'm sure there's a whole "tutorial" on this in an American camping thread.

I read it a "wee" while ago.

 

[tombear]

Squat hanging onto a tree or something solid, then dig a 6-8 inch deep hole and use a stick to poke then stir it in.

My aims bad

Really bad.

And don't forget the crossed sticks to prevent some poor soul digging the same hole later on

What if a kid finds it and thinks "buried treasure" though?

The only problem with the squatting option is that you have to make sure your trolleys are out of the way.

If on an overnighter I wait until I get home to poo in pleasure.

I've found the trick is to pull them down only as far as my knees and go into a full squat for the deed. That way the bomb bay doors are lower than your keks and can't get caught in 'friendly fire'. If I'm absolutely sure of privacy I take the bloody lot off to be on the safe side.

 

[Melonfish]

Andythecelt has it spot on, trousers to knee's and full squat, of course he missed the point about not wearing long coats whilst doing that

He may find that a pirate's life is not for he.

Tombear, I tried that method but found it easier to dig the hole first, then squat.

Miyagi, they've been writing books about it over here for years, "Everybody Poops in the Woods, and how they do it" or some such title.
They even have special "squatting" shoes.

I sit on my heals sometimes, have since i was a kid, just as a way of sitting with my butt off the ground looking at insects and such. I think this posture weirds some people out. Social stigma? Pretty common sitting posture in some non-Western countries. I had never given it much thought until guys in the service started ribbing me in the field, "what, are you taking a crap?" They mocked alot of things I did, at first
Yes, I'm a squattie. Glad you asked
