When we have a major camping trip, I always go early, both to secure
the campsite for our party, and to get things ready. I addition to
building a nice fire, setting up tables, etc., I also construct a
latrine system. I make a path back to a clearing in the forest and
dig a bunch of cat holes ahead of time.

We hand a large ziplock bag with TP from a tree that's on the way in.
Very occasionally, someone will come along (i.e. a niece of nephew's
new significant other) who has never been on one of our camping
trips. We always show them the fancy "latrine system." I thought it
would be funny to make one little change, that being having a bag of
dries corn cobs instead of the TP. After walking with them back to
the campsite, you them reveal to the person that the corn cob thing
was just a joke.

It is nice when someone has to go #2, especially at night, to have pre-
dug holes. This year I also brought a few of those solar, LED path
lights to make the latrine easier to find after dark.
