Privy: Doesn't Belong in the Back Country
"Nice idea, but does not belong in the back country and should not be maintained by volunteers!!!"
This was the graffiti drawn on the privy at Tricorner Knob shelter in GSMNP.
I'm having problem interpreting this in any other way other than the ignorant rambling of an entitled millennial that seems to think the National Park Service has built these privies for their "comfort" rather than for the protection of the back country.
Yea, this post is mostly a rant... but in case there are any ignorant hiker like the author of this graffiti out there reading this... those privies were built to protect the back country from the destruction causes by large number of people digging cat holes in a concentrated area and instead "collects" human waste in a way that allows the waste to be composted.
