Going to the bathroom is a part of daily life, and it doesn’t just disappear in the woods. So what if you’re hiking or camping and you can’t find a restroom? It may seem like a silly question, but pooping in the wilderness responsibly, effectively and cleanly is a skill that comes in handy if you’re spending any amount of time outdoors. In fact, knowing this skill may be more important than ever before. This summer, many public restrooms and outhouses are closed in an effort to reduce the spread of COVID-19. And based on anecdotal evidence, people are spending more time enjoying outdoor activities this season.
