Its the feisty third edition of How to Shit in the Woods, jampacked with new information for outdoor enthusiasts of every stripe. Hailed in its first edition as the most important environmental book of the decade by Books of the Southwest, and in its second as the real shit by the late, great, outdoor photographer Galen Rowell, this bestselling guide is often called the backpackers bible and has sold more than 2.5 million copies in eight languages. Author Kathleen Meyer continues to pioneer the way with her inimitable voiceat once humorous, irreverent, and directexamining the latest techniques for graceful backcountry elimination, and answering a desperate cry from nature concerning environmental precautions in our evershrinking wilds.World changes come fast and furious, and in the backcountry it is no different. The practice of packingitout, adopted to protect high use areas and fragile ecosystems, is here to stay. We are now often urged to haul our poop home. Or with increasing frequency, the whole business is mandatory. To assist with all this responsible human waste disposal, Meyers new edition features the latest in product innovations, from classy hightech to inexpensive doityourself. She covers the most current solutions to the health risks of drinking straight from wilderness waterways; presents a raft of natural substitutes for the purist swearing off toilet tissue; and offers a wealth of new recommendations for ladies who must make do without a loo.This downtoearth guide has been employed as a training aid for scout troops, outdoor schools, and wilderness programs for innercity youth; for rangers with the U.S. Forest Service, National Park Service, and Bureau of Land Management; as well as for whitewater rafting guides, backcountry outfitters, and members of the military.In rowing hundreds of urbanites down whitewater rivers, Meyer honed her squatting skills and found she wasnt alone in the klutz department. Her delightfully shameless discussion of a onceshameful activity, her erudite examination of its associated vocabulary, and her unapologetic promotion of its colorful vernacular make How to Shit in the Woods essential and vastly entertaining reading for anyone whos ever paused at the edge of the forest and pondered: Where do I go to go?
