Camp Toilet

[Kingofthemountain83]

Another pointer to make your camp toilet a little more luxury. Keep a torch next to it. When it is cold, torch the seat a little bit and it will warm it right up for you before you take care of business.

      Ours does get frosty...

My camp toilet is built almost exactly like Jrebel's (except no hand rails) with an enclosure like Rainier's. I also have the TP in a gallon jar and Bugle magazines in a shoe box with a Coleman battery lamp hanging from the top.

Minimalist:

---5 gallon plastic bucket

---Cabelas plastic toilet seat to fit 5 gallon bucket

---Tie a small tarp between two trees for privacy screen

---13 gallon kitchen garbage bags to line bucket

---Dig hole and bury bag(s)

I hope you are using biodegradable bags.

Naturally.

Continuing with this crappy subject......if you use Baby Wipes or Dude Wipes (not a bad idea if you are out there for a week or more).......do not make the lazy mistake of leaving them out next to your latrine.......their effectiveness is reduced when frozen solid.

Here is a picture of the original design with PVC enclosure......quickly ditched that idea for the ground blind in closure.  The big buddy heater was not gonna be overly effective with the PVC enclosure. 

We use the 12 gallon totes like the one pictured.  Lined with two contractor bags it is perfect.  The seat height is right at the tote height so you don't have to worry about spraying the underside of the structure following chili night. 

We will scoop ashes from the fire pit and put in the toilet occasionally to keep the nastiness covered and smell down. 


Also.....way to may folks with shallow pits for crapper use.  To be quite honest....it is nasty and you all are so dirty mother lovers... !!  There is a spot in the Entiat that has multiple sites that were clearly dug for crappers.  It is disgusting knowing folks are putting their tents / campers 5-20 feet away from holes full of crap.  You know dogs are digging it up too.....  Don't be lazy, pack it out and dispose of it properly.

Decision time: perch up in here where it's nice and warm or go out in the cold and hunt?

If positioned right.....you could hunt right from the throne.
