recently on a 4 day treck to the lower river me and my mate were cut a drift from the supply track, heavy rain swamped the bivvies, dry goods drenched fresh food covered in flies...the humidity just brought in every insect for miles... and they were trying to eat us alive!
so after enduring this for e few days the sanitary problems became evident. me i just walked into the forest as far away as i could and done the business..wet wiped down and got back to the bivvy...my mate Lee took a different approach..bucket, bag, dump in the bivvy and then knot up and discard.
Question being then..where to dump?
didnt take us long to realise it was easier to walk to the pub a mile up the river later in the day, or for a bit of food with it early in the morning mcdonalds was just down the road!
