When you have no outhouses, when you have frozen ground, and when you have people on a mountain for long periods of time, you have a problem. Twelve tons of poop has befouled the once pristine Mount Everest and there are severe logistical problems to the removal of said poop.

The links below provide some fascinating insights to what happens when you can't flush and forget.
