The High Exposure ledge at the Gunks reeked of human waste. It was such a beautiful place to be, but the stench was quite foul.

During a rest day at Yosemite I decided to walk along the base of El Cap looking for any curious booty gear that had been dropped hundreds of feet or so to see how badly it had been damaged. All I found were shattered poop tubes...

i guess no one read the last sentence so I'll quote it for you again....

BESIDES THE ORIGINAL MENTION OF THE MOUNTAIN....and i think i said woods too....

if i shit in the woods it's after a super long hike...AWAY from everything and everybody...sorry...not packing any of that out....all it takes is a hole dug in the dirt with your toe...and a few leaves and dirt to cover it

Ya don't have to get mean about it. You do #2 how you see fit. You may want to consider digging a hole deeper than your toe. (but maybe you have a 6 inch toe) Critters have a way of uncovering that stuff and dragging the TP into nesting sites.

Man, why dig your own hole when the animals have already done it for you??? Just find a nice big snakehole or something. It saves a lot of energy spent digging, and you'll totally send harder!

My fear is the snake will notice its new home during the middle of the ritual.
