You won't believe the excitement I felt after discovering another human being who feels equally excited about bridges, making up new words and (talking about) pooping in nature. Soul sisters!!! Keeping being you, boo! 😍💕
id love to see videos about trails and their perceived difficulties. From hikes for the new to the die hard. these videos are great fun because it lets people realize that hiking is more than just walking in the woods. There is so much to nature that can be seen.
And this trail goes through so many different types of terrain and is a good example of why people need to be at least a bit prepared for shifts in terrain or temps. Those rocky areas and getting cold enough for snow due to elevation was something else!
Miranda, you don’t know how important your enthusiasm for and information on outdoor toilet habits is for women. I have several female friends who have completely avoided some amazing outdoor experiences because of their perceived lack of “normal” toilet facilities. One of them has never even peed on the ground and doesn’t know how. While I will pop a squat just about anywhere, there is a certain panache to teaching someone else how to properly do it. Teach on girl!
I absolutely love the pure joy and wonder on your face as you approached the toilet. This is one of my favorites in the state. And what? only 3 episodes??!!
I hope I run into you on a trail someday so I can give you such an epic high-five that it creates a thunder clap that can be heard from 100 miles away lol 🤪. Love your videos and your quirky energy, keep up the good work and never stop being you 👍🏻
Thank you so much for this series and the poo-etiquette you provide along the way. The view from the Hidden Lake location is absolutely breathtaking!!! Can’t wait to see the third location!
@MirandaGoesOutside would you mind sharing your thoughts about the Parapack hat? I’ve been looking at them recently and find it a fun coincidence that you’re wearing one in this video. 😃
Such a fun (and bizarre!) series. I've visited Washington state but we never got more than a mile from the roads because we were on a road trip from Seattle to LA and could only afford short stops... It looks fabulous.
Next one has got to be Sahale glacier camp, but(T) it’s right down the road from hidden lakes lookout! This series is so fun. I laughed so hard when you said it would be an honor and a privilege to poop there. 🤣
Hey @mirandagoesoutside, beautiful hike! I know you already include so much information in the description, but one videos like this could you also include the trail info? Like, distance/location / elevation gain/ time it took you and the crew?
Now this is some quality content!! Miranda is bringing us the real investigative journalism of the backcountry. Special thanks for including poo etiquette for those of us new to pooing outside. What is the poo etiquette for bidet users? Use the bidet elsewhere?
I always love your videos. Ranier seems to have stuck with you and while we dont see him much he sounds cool and happy with you which seems to confirm how great of a team you all are. Please include his input also on gear reviews as well when possible. It was really helpful when you all did that. I am curious about your vegan journey. It seems you did not start that way, but chose that path and now have returned to a more omnivour state. This would be very intereating as every person makes such choices for so many different reasons. Maybe it is just I (and I assume many others) feel close to you and find you amazing as a person.
Since leaving REI I’ve had to go from Producer to videographer, meaning I’m behind the camera more and cannot be on camera. But still here and loving every minute!
@RainerGolden ok that explains a lot! For the record, I started paying more attention to the quality of video and you are truly amazing! I was not sure who was actually filming before now. Thanks for all the great work!
Miss Maranda, Rainer, do you ever wonder/think or talk about the history of the trails y’all hike on?????? I mean like Lewis and Clark, the men that went west, that walked those exact trails in search of gold!!!! “Go West Young Man!!!! Go West”!!!!! To sleep where these brave explorers lived with primitive gear!!!!! Just wondering and maybe y’all could incorporate a few minutes into each show telling us about what y’all find out!!!! It gives me “Goosebumps” just thinking about we all could learn!!!!!!! Thanks for another amazing video and I can’t wait for the finale of “Thrones in Nature”!!! I hope y’all will expand this into other states!!!!
No spoilers but I will say the final toilet more than lived up to the hype. One of the best backpacking trips I’ve ever done, and the best views I have ever seen anywhere in the world.
I swear, you are my spirit animal. LOL There is an annual race in Seattle called the Lard Butt that you might be interested in doing. I've been meaning to, but I keep forgetting about it. : )
That is an amazing hike and so beautiful Miranda! Hidden Lake Lockout is at 6900 feet and I live at approx. 6700 feet in Colorado Springs which means my privy is at about 6712 feet but not much of a scenic view, but mine is prettier and just a flight of stairs away and private. I just noticed the lookout in the background at 14:20, so much for privacy there either. Sounds like one should be up to date on their Tetanus Shot and having a friend you trust with tweezers along would be a bonus. Overall, I don't think I would go out of my way to use this toilet even for the views. Butt then I am not a Poopaholic.
Ha!! This is definitely not a toilet I’d want to use in the dark. Fall off a cliff?! Get tetanus??? Slip on someone else’s toilet paper trash and break an ankle?! But in the light of day, it’s lovely!!
This video makes me want to come back to Washington to hike. Only did the small hikes since my tiny dog wasn’t super capable of hiking and I only go where he goes
its a hang up I have when a hiking video is filmed from ahead of the hiker and you can tell they ran up, set up the camera, then ran back and pretended to walk up the trail for the first time. I appreciate that this felt like a pretty diegetic filming perspective. so uh. thanks for that. also have you talked about your watch in a video before? I've been looking to upgrade to something more robust for my hikes
i love your focus on poo! LNT so important, paper & poo in camp, on trail is a bummer. NYT recently did a beginner camper article and no mention of poo etiquette. I tried to leave a comment about it but the comment wasn't accepted (prob because it had the words 'poo' and 'defecating' in it)... If you are a new backpacker- always make sure to check your campsite well before set up: it is horrible to set up over someone else's waste. Our culture has such an issue with human excrement, thanks Miranda for making this topic a little more... natural😺
I am disappointed you didn't do your bridge song when you went over the bridge (Is it for only certain sized bridges 🙂) That is a beautiful site, I really want to get out to the north west someday and see some of the sights.
@mirandagoesoutside Have you tried mixing all the flavors of LMNT together at once and see what it tastes like? I use to go to 711 and mix all the sodas together on a dare.
Loving this series! 😂 Also, I wish I had half Miranda’s personality haha ❤ Can’t wait for my sample pack of LMNT to get to me, can’t wait to try the watermelon and add some lime! Do you have a video on backcountry mocktails? You should
😁 I hope you love it!! I’ll def be drinking watermelon salt w/ lime to try and extend the summer vibes as long as possible. I’d love to do a mocktails vid!!!
Have you been to the one above Peggy's Pond campground on Mount Daniels? It's right off the PCT, if I remember correctly. Most spectacular place I've ever $#@+ in my life. If it's stiill there. It's been almost 20 years now.
@mirandagoesoutside I adore your videos. Long time hiker who uses a Pee Thang to pee, but I am terrified of pooping in nature. This has totally preventing me from backpacking I'm injured now and can't hike, so been binging your videos and I LOVE your channel. I have watched your poop videos, and I'm curious, do you cover yourself up at all when pooping, or just let it all hang out. I am totally fine with using a bidet to wash. But I am very modest person, and not ok with just dropping my pants anywhere. Also, probably TMI but my pooping time is not quick and easy. What happens if you can't squat that long? Ahhh this stresses me out so much, but I really want to get past this, so I can try backpacking, HELP!!
That toilet gives me "Rick&Morty" shy pooping episode vibes. I'd love to *drop* a rock there. But Miranda, help me with this question, how do you handle the "code brown situation" when everyone makes a mess around an amazing throne like that one? Aren't you affraid of stepping on someone's *payload* ? Or maybe their discarded *hate letters* ?? Do you do something to prevent that something goes wrong and ruins your experience *planting a pinecone* ? Greetings from the caribbean to you and the bug in denial 😂
If it is not the bathroom on the Cascade Pass/Sahale Arm hike…you will have missed miserably. That’s the best bathroom in the WORLD. You can see Mt. Rainier over 100 miles away while you go to the bathroom.
If you haven't seen part 1 in this series you can watch it here: ua-cam.com/video/-r9XVqu8yjE/v-deo.html
LOVE Y'ALL 💚
Miranda i got hacked watching your last video. 😢
That particular plant was not Bigleaf Maple, it was Oplopanax horridus, commonly known as Devil's Club. Do not use as backcountry toilet paper.
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
You won't believe the excitement I felt after discovering another human being who feels equally excited about bridges, making up new words and (talking about) pooping in nature.
Soul sisters!!!
Keeping being you, boo! 😍💕
Still reeling from the fact that my best comeback in the moment was, “I am not a bug.” 😂
Still gloating on how good *my* response was.
@@MirandaGoesOutsideGot 'im!! 😂
@@MirandaGoesOutsidethat was a Kelso A BURN!!!
😂😂 there’s worse things to be than a bug
A worse thing to be: a buggy feature

Yeah. Hiking is also pooping in the woods.

"Last time we had a bit of a disappointment because the bathroom was completely destroyed." -Me, regarding far too many bathrooms after I use them.
HAHAHA! Best comment.
1:25. That looks like devil’s club. It has giant leaves like that and is covered in thorns. Nasty stuff to fall onto!
I absolutely love the pure joy and wonder on your face as you approached the toilet. This is one of my favorites in the state. And what? only 3 episodes??!!
If y'all like the series, we'll make more!!! Heck knows I *love* visiting backcountry bathrooms!!
Thank you for the number 2 video of the Number 2 series.
I hope I run into you on a trail someday so I can give you such an epic high-five that it creates a thunder clap that can be heard from 100 miles away lol 🤪. Love your videos and your quirky energy, keep up the good work and never stop being you 👍🏻
MBCTT (Miranda Back Country Toilet Trail). Time to turn this into a national trail along the likes of the John Muir, PCT, etc!
Now that’s a thru hike I could get behind 😆
@@MirandaGoesOutsidepun intended?
Another use for the hiking umbrella: spider web removal baton. I do it with my trekking poles when I’m hiking through lots of spider webs!
Oh heck yes!!! Great idea.
Oh the bugs and Miranda and her headlights are just wonderful
Thank you so much for this series and the poo-etiquette you provide along the way. The view from the Hidden Lake location is absolutely breathtaking!!! Can’t wait to see the third location!
AWESOME view from this pit toilet ! I have been taking pictures of trail pooperies for years! Nice UAP/UFO thrown in there as well! 😮
The princess of poop, in search of the crown stool!
Princess of Poop!! Love it!!
Every time I need more LMNT I use your link! 😁
Aww yay!!! I love to hear that!
Gosh darn pooptastic ! You were not lying...that is the best poopy view I've ever seen.
5:30 oh wow a zipper there. 16:50 doesn't look safe lol. Great video !!
What an awesome series this is! Stoked to see the grand finale, and pre congrats to a very well earned 100K subs!! 👊
Ahhh thank you!!! Very very excited to (hopefully) get there soon! p.s. the last toilet is *chefs kiss*
Now THIS is the Washington content we locals and transplants WANT!!! Love. It. Now I gotta go to these toilets. 🤌
Yesssss!!!! Thank you!!
@MirandaGoesOutside would you mind sharing your thoughts about the Parapack hat? I’ve been looking at them recently and find it a fun coincidence that you’re wearing one in this video. 😃
My video this coming Sunday has an entire segment reviewing the Parapack hat!! I’ve loved them for years!
Ayee just bought a travel bidet. Can't wait! 😂
BIDETS FOR LIFE!! I hope you love it!
Thanks for the ASMR without any creepy whispers!
Wow that view really is awesome.
Such a fun (and bizarre!) series. I've visited Washington state but we never got more than a mile from the roads because we were on a road trip from Seattle to LA and could only afford short stops... It looks fabulous.
Next one has got to be Sahale glacier camp, but(T) it’s right down the road from hidden lakes lookout! This series is so fun. I laughed so hard when you said it would be an honor and a privilege to poop there. 🤣
Thanks for talking about the etiquette. I learned things!
Yay!! It’s one of my favorite topics!
Hey @mirandagoesoutside, beautiful hike! I know you already include so much information in the description, but one videos like this could you also include the trail info? Like, distance/location / elevation gain/ time it took you and the crew?
I was going to ask the same thing!
This upload transported me to the magical land. The choice of angles and cinematography is superb my friend!
What a great place to visit.
The Cascades are chock full of amazing privies with a view. That's part of what makes it my favorite mountain range(s)
I totally agree. And it's so often a surprise to find an amazing loo with a view somewhere you didn't expect!
Now this is some quality content!! Miranda is bringing us the real investigative journalism of the backcountry. Special thanks for including poo etiquette for those of us new to pooing outside. What is the poo etiquette for bidet users? Use the bidet elsewhere?
I always love your videos. Ranier seems to have stuck with you and while we dont see him much he sounds cool and happy with you which seems to confirm how great of a team you all are. Please include his input also on gear reviews as well when possible. It was really helpful when you all did that.
I am curious about your vegan journey. It seems you did not start that way, but chose that path and now have returned to a more omnivour state. This would be very intereating as every person makes such choices for so many different reasons. Maybe it is just I (and I assume many others) feel close to you and find you amazing as a person.

This was awesome!! So looking forward to the Grand Poo-nale in the next episode
Outstanding view for sure!!
This series is hilarious 😂!! I cant wait to see where #1 is!
No spoilers but I will say the final toilet more than lived up to the hype. One of the best backpacking trips I’ve ever done, and the best views I have ever seen anywhere in the world.
Put a couple drops of mint in next time with your lime juice and watermelon and you can have a watermelon mojito electrolyte drink on trail!
Genius!!!
Miranda, Yay!
You should come do this in Switzerland. You’d love it hahaha
I swear, you are my spirit animal. LOL There is an annual race in Seattle called the Lard Butt that you might be interested in doing. I've been meaning to, but I keep forgetting about it. : )
Poorific! Thanks for another great video and can’t believe you didn’t see that UFO.
number 2 ( starts laughing in my best Beavis & Butthead style ) .. lol

Great video I would love to run there
I want to go there just to poo. 😂 Thanks Miranda
I'm 2/2 for having done these hikes and not visiting the toilet... need to reevaluate my life decisions

Gotta love a Poo Palace with a view!
This reminds me of the episode of Rick and Morty... Especially that view 😂.
Feels like a @TheTimTraveller video :-) He goes on different adventures.
That seat is so scary but sign me up for that view!
Miranda, I'm really happy LMNT is sponsoring this series, but don't you think you should give Metamucil a call?
I really LOVE your pooper videos - give us more
I am disappointed you didn't do your bridge song when you went over the bridge (Is it for only certain sized bridges 🙂) That is a beautiful site, I really want to get out to the north west someday and see some of the sights.

When I visit Washington for the first time, what trails would you recommend?
Never been this early before. Instant like on the vid btw.
WELCOMEEEE

Consecutive Miranda Goes Outside!! videos without a burp: 1
I don't even care about the bathrooms but this series is great. Also, those are definitely not maple lol
WOW! That is absolutely gorgeous! Never wanted to hold my poo through a hike ever in my life! LOL!
Right!?! SO worth it!!

This is the best and sh*tiest series. Can't wait for the next video.
They should have a zipline from the lookout to the toilet. You know for those emergencies
😂😂😂😂
Those "big leaves" are Devil's Club not maple! haha watch out for those, don't touch!
Hi Miranda
"What is this? A river for ants?" ----- Zoolander
You never forget the moment you realize that you are digging up someone else's cat hole! Never Again!
This is my poop gosh darn
You should write children's picture books with all of your insect adventrues!
omg yes
Tetanus shot not included? Can hardly wait to see #3 Miranda! #3? 🤔
Wait.. do you recommend those shorts?? I’d like your opinion. I see a lot of problems with them. You glossed over.
Sahale arm toilet hike.... great... now theres going to be lines and tons of instagrammers
Best place to poop in the wilderness 🤣 love it
Answering the important questions over here ☺️
If it is not the bathroom on the Cascade Pass/Sahale Arm hike…you will have missed miserably.
That’s the best bathroom in the WORLD. You can see Mt. Rainier over 100 miles away while you go to the bathroom.
😉
I'm just happy that Miranda always remembers to bring her pencil erasers:)
It would be a shame to get up there to the gorgeous view and not have to, well, leave anything behind.
This series reminds me of the ‘take the poo to the loo’ song. Lol
😳 must go google this song
Name the series “Loo’ s With Views”.
Who cleans those?
Poor Rainer, filming everything and carrying equipment just to be called a bug.
Miranda and I consider it a moral duty to make fun of each other as much as possible. 😂
I have that same pack.
Wouldn't it be amazing if you could do every state.
Rusty nails in a toilet?? Post a sign: Derrière beware…. 😳
