Ep. 43 Bathroom Breaks in the Outdoors [and While Camping]


Listen Later

“But, what if you need to go to the bathroom?” Where and how to go #1 and #2 in the outdoors, whether adventuring, or camping, can be a huge sense of anxiety for people. So, whether it’s simply squatting in the bush, or bringing a portable potty, we are here to share all the ways we’ve created toilets in the outdoors!

Portable Toilets are great solutions for when you’re in busy areas, or you don’t want to be away from your child - you can use some in a car, in a tent, or hugged up against a tree. 

 

If you choose to squat and leave nature in nature, remember to leave no trace – and carry out any toilet paper you may use. (www.leavenotrace.ca

 

When Camping: 

  • use head lamp, and have bear spray 
  • bring mason jar, bucket, toddler training seat, or portable potty 
  • dig cat hole: rule is that it must be dug 200 feet away from water sources, walking trails, and camp sites (or carry out poop, like you would carry out dog poop)  
  •  

    For toddlers who are new to learning how to squat, you can support the toddler’s legs behind their knees, to help them form a squat.
