When Nature Calls
OR WHY WE DRAGGED A TOILET ONTO A GLACIER
When nature calls, Goldeimer compost toilets cover your ass.
Together with Werkhaus, they have developed a portable compost toilet for all your travel needs.
It’s not really meant for taking on a hike, but this time there wasn’t a cable car that could take us to where we wanted to go. So we disassembled this loo, divided it out onto our backpacks, and hiked up 1500m onto the Schesaplana Glacier. It was the first day of the year on which you could reach the top and there was only one other hiking group around. They must have thought we were crazy because we kept stopping to put together this little toilet, have Toni sit butt-naked on it, enjoying the view while I took photographs. In nature, with nature, when nature calls.
Toni then took the quick way down, sitting on his backpack and sliding over the snowfields. The planks of the toilet provided some great stability.
