Rubicon, Summer 2005..

[Positive Vibes]

Tom when you say you have the "proper equipment" for packing our waste out, what exactly do you have? A dumper bumper? 5 gallon bucket? Zip loc baggies?

I have the PETT system. It's a high quality toilet seat, and bags with double zip and poo powder that treats the contents to make them landfill safe (you toss the bag into the trash)

They aren't cheap, but they are sturdy (ask Char what happens with the cheap ones) and they do fold down to a very small size.

I will also be getting the privacy tent.

Tom, what all did it come with? How many dumps can you take with the equipment and supplies you got?

 

[tdavis]

The toilet comes with 3 bags (3 dumps), and replacement bags are $25/box of 12.

We can always have a late august run and a september run - I know I'll be trying to get up doing those timeframes. It's just the trail is litterally easier by then - once the Jamborees go through, lots of the deep holes are filled so almost stock jeeps can go through.

So the first date is to go BEFORE it's "paved" by the Jamborees.

I got clerance from the wife to do this run. Now I just need to save up some cash and make sure I can get the time off of work.

ooh oooh. . .me me. . .

And I'm sure John will chime in here with a "ditto"

I don't understand, what do you mean "ditto"????? (makes me want to be a "silent subscriber")

I will be up near there the week before 4th of July for Scout Camp . . . . guess I could scope things out if we need to.

I was just reading about your PETT toilet. I liked the part where it says it is "quickly deployed"

That could really come in handy in a pinch, or during a pinch.

darn, I'm not big enough where it counts!

j/k that's too damn far away, even though I would like to try someday

 

[Positive Vibes]

Did we decide on a date yet? And do we have list of who is going?

 

[Jefe]

I'm cool with the July 17-19 dates

"I want to go"

If you don't mind riding along as spotter you can have my passenger seat.
