Product Description
I met Bill Phillips a number of years ago in Bozeman, MT and he gave me a PETT Toilet System. I have used off and on over the years and its a great product. Really great for family trips and remote camp sites.
What Bill invented has revolutionized the #2 business for a lot of folks including those of us who enjoy taking a great dump in the woods!
Bill's product basically neutralizes human waste into a product that is extremely biodegradable and can easily be left for placement in a landfill.
Bill calls his invention Poo Powder and that is what is found in the WAG BAG. The PETT Site states that "the non-toxic Poo Powder waste treatment treats up to 32 ounces of liquid and solid waste allowing for multiple use. It turns liquid waste to a solid for hygenic and spillproof transport. The Poo Powder waste treatment controls odors and contains a decay catalyst that breaks down solid waste".
Now I still wouldn't want to haul someone else's poo out of the hills but at least it doesn't stink!For More InformationVisit Phillip's Environmental Products, Inc online.
The crew there has a number of different options for the descerning adventurer such as a tent and an actual toilet that hold the WAG bag. All you really need is the WAG BAG to be a happy climber.
have a great climb and remember its okay to do it in the woods when you have a PETT WAG BAG.
The Wag Bag can be ordered on-line and also can be found at many quality outdoor stores. Images |

Voted 5/5 | If you have ever climbed a Cascade volcano and been issued a 'blue bag' or the 'Mt. Shasta human waste packout system', then you will like these.
They are light weight, come with hand sanitizer and a small amount of toilet paper, and secure. I usually pack a few of these for Shasta instead of the USFS-issued packout bags. After use I do still prefer to put them in a trash compactor bag for the hike out though. | | Posted Jun 6, 2008 12:37 pm |
