Why Poop Matters?

Poop that isn’t buried or packed out is one of the biggest resource issues affecting public lands. It contaminates waterways, harms wildlife, and is a threat to public health. 

It is also one of the biggest costs for land managers and is among the top reasons they're forced to reduce permits, close camping areas, and decrease the number of visitors in a given area. 

With land management staff and funds at an all-time low, it’s critical that we take care of our poop during the race. 

Here’s How We’re Setting You Up For Success At Chuckanut

Use The Facilities

When there’s a porta-potty or bathroom, use it! There are toilets at the start and finish line, and at the first and third aid stations.

Bury Your Poop

When you have to go between aid stations or when there are no facilities, go at least 75 adult paces from the trail (ideally further if at an aid station), find a private spot and bury your poop 6-8” deep. A limited number of trowels will be available at aid stations, but it’s a good idea to pack your own.

PACT Outdoors Single Serves

Chuckanut partner, PACT Outdoors, makes all-in-one bathroom kits for the outdoors. Every runner will receive a single-use Backcountry Bathroom Kit at packet pickup. It contains (2) PACT Wipes and (3) PACT Tabs. To activate the Wipes, add a little squirt of water and they unfold into a 9” towel. They get you clean like a wet wipe, but weigh almost nothing and decompose much more rapidly. After use, deposit the wipe in the cat-hole with your poop or pack it out. 

PACT Tabs are wooden plugs inoculated with fungal mycelium. Mycelium is the root system for fungi and nature’s great decomposer. When added to the cat-hole, PACT’s native mycelium decomposes your poop faster and kills harmful pathogens like E. coli. Just add the three PACT Tabs to the hole. Fill with dirt and let nature do the rest. 

PACT Ultra Lite Kit

PACT’s Ultra Lite Bathroom Kit is designed specifically for trail runners. It weighs about as much as a gel pack and holds everything you need to dig a hole, bury your poop and stay clean. If you think you might need to go during the race, we recommend carrying a burial kit. 

PACT Outdoors is offering Chuckanut participants a 30% discount on all products. Use code: CHUCKANUT30 at checkout.
