Hi,
One thing I've been noticing more of on hikes in the past few years is little plastic dog poop bags (presumably with dog poop in them). I love dogs, and owners who take care of them well by taking them on walks in the woods (except in areas where they aren't allowed such as wilderness areas). But I have to say it detracts from the experience when I have to look at bags of poop left by hikers (who presumably are planning to pick up their dog's poop on the way down). My thinking - why not pick up the poop and then just walk into the woods (off trail) about 100 feet and relocate it under some leaves? The dog owner could then put the poopy bag inside another bag, tie it up carefully, and just stuff it into an outside pocket of their backpack? Any other thoughts?
