Many years ago, for New Year's, I stayed at a friend's cabin up in the mountains of Pennsylvania. No plumbing. Only an outhouse. You would think using an outhouse before turning in for the night when it's like 5 degrees out would be an unpleasant experience. But it's actually pretty nice. There is absolutely no odor, since everything in the pit is frozen solid. And they had a wintertime seat cut out of rigid foam insulation. That seat was cold for about one second when you first sat down, but it warmed up immediately.

Better than using an outhouse in the summer.
