very cool.

Unscented baby wipes leave you cool and refreshed! Keeps you on the mountain longer!

I am going to do a hygiene kit build so I can run it next season.

Will probably run a Scott cardboard roll with Charmin paper for my build to save 0.03 grams.

I'm #teamsitka

So until Stika makes TP I won't be using TP.

And don't ever use a clorox wipe. You'll only try that once.

There is just no bleaching out that dark dirty hole.

I know it's not propably within the rules, but I know what I have used in my life in an emergency. Some things I don't really want to talk about. Ya gotta do what ya gotta do.

Once again a perfect question for the forum banned Alone guy.

His knowledge and expertise would have covered the only true TP to use for sure, in detail.

Take the last 1/4 " on the roll at home . Backup - long sleeve shirts. Natural- mullan weed (fuzzy leaves)

2 ply.....just bring half as much.

2-ply, but peel out the cardboard tube before taking it to the field. The roll squishes down better, and maybe saves a few grams

I'm in search of a higher BC TP. The wind has been playing havic on it, and above 25 mph placement has become difficult.

Any suggestions?

I've been giving this a LOT of thought and I think I've come up with the perfect solution: 2-ply, but you first use 1 side, then flip over to the other side, THEN you split the plys, put the poop sides together (which should act as a kind of glue) then you go front and back with your brand new TP!

You get 4 days out of 1 square that way!!!!!

Pro tips:

1. Grab your cheeks, one in each hand and spread them when you squat. Minimizes debris caught around the outlet.

2. Use one half square of top quality paper towel like Bounty. Start on one end, repeatedly folding the used piece in. Should be able to get four or more swipes out of one of the rectangular “half” sheets.

3. Use one unscented wipe, starting on your face, your pits, your groin, finishing with your butt. Fold used sections in as necessary. Note…always work from the top down.

That’s all, good for another 24 hrs!

I’d go with a heavier TP. It’s going to handle the wind a little better but make your wiping a bit slower…. Everything is a trade off

In all honesty, if you start wiping your ass with your opposite hand, you’ll find out how thin TP really is

Its a well know fact the hunters who are "anal-dextrous" and can wipe with either hand kill more game

i use the back country bidet

 

[Axlrod]

Single ply then use a hole punch to "swiss cheese it" it's a light as I will go!

 

[svivian]

This is where the manscaping thread comes into play.... cant have any dinkleberries hanging if you give it a good trim down there. Also saves weight.

 

[pcrossett]

2-ply for sure and pack a few individual biodegradable wet wipes just in case the ol freeze dried meals hit a little harder than they're supposed to.

my uncle came back to camp with the breast pocket cut of his shirt.

My buddies always sacrifice a pocket or sleeve before a sock.
