I would rethink the whole no toilet thing. What does the GF say about that? There are plenty of rustic campgrounds with a toilet. Catholing in the woods with mosquitoes biting your ass as you try not fall in your own crap might not make for a good weekend. YOu can learn a lot at a regular campground with the basic amenities. THings like campfire starting, campfire cooking, setting up your gear etc. Make sure dogs are allowed before you go as well. How big is your tent? If it is small you, the GF and 2 dogs are going to make for some cozy quarters. I would bring your own firewood also. Most areas around campgrounds/sites are picked clean by now. As for starters get the firestarters from Walmart. THey light easy and go pretty good.
My brother was just there with about 15 other friends. All underage (19), all shitfaced and having the time of their lives.
I've heard some awesome stories though.
Just not what i'm looking to do with my gf and dogs. Maybe a group of people though.

So here is another question to answer: fuel for fire (wood) fire starters. Fuel is readily available depending on if it hasn't rained recently. Firestarters come in all shapes and sizes.
Yup, or steel wool. I like steel wool.An easy fire starter is cotton balls saturated with petroleum jelly.
use compactor bagsI camp in the middle of the woods with no facilities and no one else around for miles. There is no toilet, but I hate crapping in the woods. I bring a bucket with the seat cover built in.... You can buy those for $17. The "double doodie" bags to go with it are expensive though... You can use regular 10 gallon trash bags but it'll be grosser.
I don't know how people crap without something like that. If I pull my pants down to my ankles and squat, the point of exit happens to be located directly over the pants at my ankles. Plus, the pants around ankles prevent me from separating my feet far enough apart. If I try to deposit in front of or in back of my pants, then I am unbalanced and just fall over. I've tried holding a tree and leaning back... That sucked. And I'm not getting naked in the woods with the mosquitos biting.
This is also why I find Asian style toilets horrifying.

LOL, just thought of something I have two folding 'camp stools' with old mildewed fabric on them, cut a hole and they would make great 'stool stools'.... If anyone wants them they are in taunton (or they can be in Braintree behind my office)
