If we already go off trail and hide to p**p in the woods...?

Question

whats the big deal about digging the hole.... its biodegradeble and nobody should be walking there unless there planning to do the same thing.... and what if you buried it then the next person decided to dig the hole in actially the same place, revealing your.... aw... mess o' p**p... then what

Answer 1

so people don't step in it and dogs don't roll in it

Answer 2

bears don't bury it, but cats do.

i think the "dig the hole" part is just a suggestion, and most people prefer to have their waste covered (even if only by leaves).

burying it or leaving it exposed makes no difference as to its ability to biodegrade. however, burying it may help keep any odors and/or pathogens from spreading by the air!

Answer 3

you have too much time to think...when it comes to pooping "just do it",,,,,,, bury it to keep flys away from trail/campsite
