Dan Clem's Adventure Story:
Encounters with Bogachiel Beth

Dan Clem showing that he can doo better after his encounter with Bogachiel Beth.

​
In this episode he shared the story of a boy becoming a man, while making a few shitty mistakes along the way.

I believe it was 2012 and there were 4 of my close friends taking some time before heading to a wedding in Portland. After a quick jaunt on the Olympic Coast, we headed inland for a few days of backpacking along the Bogachiel River. Our campsite was about 7 miles in when we heard the 'voice of the woods.'

After the 'incident', there was many laughs and a solid attempt to find my 'poo angel,' but alas, she had left camp. We all remembered that she mentioned she was there waiting for a trail crew to come with supplies and would be heading out the next day. It wasn't till we returned to civilization that one of my friends who was in an ecology masters program at UW realized where she heard that name. After some Googling, well, we were on our asses and I was red as a beet, seeing the infamous Bogachiel Beth and imagining her telling me 'you can do better.' ~Dan Clem, a real doo gooder

How to really shit in the woods

Toileting in the woods is not as easy as sitting and flushing. Lucky for us all, it's a developable skill.

​We wrote this blog that will give you everything you need to get started including sharing with you a couple of our favorite pieces of gear - the trowel and the pee rag!
