Campertunity

  When camping we all want visceral views, heavenly hikes, wondrous water spots… and comfortable commodes. Toilets are one of the number one things campers are looking for when deciding where to book. Unless they are experienced back country campers and very secure with using a shovel, campers are hoping to have access to a private place for their business. With more and more people exploring the great outdoors – especially families with children – there is a growing trend and need for outhouses, port-o-potties and/or composting toilets.

  A composting toilet is a great way to add toilet facilities to your campsite with minimal cost and effort. Composting toilets break down waste, and what’s left can be used as a soil amendment. Safe use of human waste can be placed in an already existing compost pile, around fruit trees, on lawns and in gardens. (However, please do not use composting toilet waste on any edible plants, vegetables, or herbs.

Camping alone can be a great way to get some alone time and connect with yourself and the environment. But this element of solitude means you need to be extra aware and cautious of your surroundings. Campertunity was founded by women who want to ensure that every woman feels confident and safe when she’s enjoying the great outdoors. These tips will help you plan, prepare for, and enjoy a safe solo camping trip.
