How to shit in the woods


If you’re spending any length of time in the woods, at some point you’ll need to defecate.   And like everything we do in bushcraft, we want to do our absolute best to ‘leave no trace’ as well as to be hygienic.

You might also want to take a look at this post on general hygiene for bushcraft.

How to shit in the woods is something we cover during the opening briefing on our Wayfarer’s Weekend.

You can see plenty of photos from this course and all of our other courses on our Facebook page.
