Toilet paper or wet wipes?

[luv2huntelk]

While hunting elk high altitude this past weekend I came across a pile of scat….well actually pile of shit with at least 1/2 a roll of toilet paper used all sitting on the ground just waiting to blow all over the mountain. Quite unsightly.

So is TP better or WW? Do you bury or just squat and go?

What’s your preference for hygiene?

Wet wipes. And cover it with a big rock or dig a hole with your boot heel and cover it up. Gross.

Depends on how many mountain houses I've nuked but wet wipes are the way to go.

Wet wipes. Doubles up as a shower.

Heard on the Exo podcast that some guys are dehydrating their wet wipes to save weight. Kinda genius actually.

Bo'fum! TP for initial attack and wet wipes for mop up. Cover it with something and flee the area!!

WTF do what works your you. Just bury in! Is this an actual question

 

[CorbLand]

Wet wipes.

Wet wipes. Take some veggie bags from the store to dispose. Packs to nothing if you want to leave no trace or burn later. It all weighs nothing

Wet wipes can and will freeze solid. One of the guys in camp had this happen during a 2nd season hunt.... store em close to you at night, in your bag etc and not just inside your pack like a buddy of mine did. Although it was a pretty good story he told over the fire that night about holding the solid chunk of wipes in his hands to try to warm up and pull apart. Depending on weather...I'll carry both.

Another vote for both, neither is heavy and that’s not something I want to run out of.

If I can only choose one wet wipes. But I usually take both.

Surface sh!tters are as bad as sign shooters..........

 

[Boarmaster]

Both.

 

[HiMtnHntr]

Wet wipes, all the way. A clean butt is a key ingredient to true happiness.

Wet wipes make sure the 7 year itch stays away and it's not hard to flip a rock to cover up the mess.

 

[joeyf1986]

Always wet wipes

 

[insanelupus]

Both & bury.

Wet wipes for the win for the duece as well as backcountry showers.

Compressed coin towelettes. Add a couple drops of water and they expand into a full wipe so it’s like a more biodegradable wet wipe and they weigh next to nothing plus don’t take up any space. Can fit about 10 of them in an orange waterproof match holder. Surprisingly tear resistant too

Use these on the boat and they do work well for fish slime, worm guts, and other nastiness.
