Remote Toilet ideas?

[Fentonite]

I've got a little cabin on a mining claim (emphasis on "little" - think tuffshed with a deck). I've gotten it livable, and I enjoy spending time there. It's a bit over 9000' elevation, no running water, no power, but has a potbelly stove and a nice view. It's time to put in a crapper.

I figure I'll build a small outbuilding. Again, no power or water. Does anyone here have experience with composting or solar toilets? Plenty of southern exposure/sun. There are a couple commercial waterless composting toilets out there, but I'd sure like to hear some ideas or experience before I spend $ on that sort of thing. Definitely want something a bit more civilized than sitting on the sleeve from an MRE carton - done enough of that.

Ideas?

Fucking beautiful view

Thanks. Best part of the view... there's no people in it.

Can't use a roommate, but help me figure out the toilet, and you can use the place! (the cabin, not just the toilet)

Sadly the only experience I have in dealing with Shit is 8 years in the army!

Not sure what happened to the link - it's still up on my computer. Thanks for throwing up a link, Byte.

If it weren't for the missus, I might be more inclined to invest in something more fun, and keep doing like the bears do. But if mamma ain't happy...

C. Ground floor
1. Humus compartment
2. Ventilation pipe
3. Water closet
4. Urinal
5. Urine collection and dehydration

Just might take you up on that...

I'm looking at a smaller system, single floor, etc. Like one of these:

Hoping someone has some experience with something like this. Thought about a propane incinerating toilet, but I've heard that the stink is horrendous, not to mention the stories of burned butts.
