Theyre here! The new Wandawega Rest Stops.Now you dont need to sh*t like a bear in the woods.Well, I guess its still similiar but now with porcelain thrones! That flush!And lights.Even fans & vents.The luxury just doesnt stop.Our backwoods latrines FINALLY got their long overdue upgrade. The kind of upgrade that gives proper porcelain thrones instead of glorified plastic trailer restrooms. Porcelain farm sinks with chrome faucets instead of spigots out of a hole in the ground. Real, actual floors. (Be still my heart – the OG Forbo tile of my dreams). Even lights. That work. (Deadstock 1960s) first aid boxes (that are actually stocked). Benches for trail side resting.(Theres a reason that we warn folks about camp being a one eighth of a star on a five star scale. These new seasonal latrines may have just kicked us up to quarter of a star. Maybe.A heartfelt apology to every camper whos stayed in the Rustic Camping Cluster, Girlscout Cabins, Hickory, wedge tents, Dome, BSA tents before now cause you really had to rough it. In Wisconsin, for rustic camping, a trench and a shovel are considered suitable for rustic campsites. But up to now, we opted for nicer flushable porta potties. They did the trick, but were happy to see them go and never ever come back.Better late than never. Weve never been more excited about giving campers a nicer place to SSS. Sh*t/Shower/Shave (outdoor showers next?)Last shot is the best part: just like our OG latrines, these are still seasonal, portable units – with a bobcat and forks they are designed and built to lift & shift. We just plug them in to power and connect them to a hose, and voil.
