South Pole Water Infrastructure

https://brr.fyi/posts/south-pole-water-infrastructure

For work that takes you away from station, without access to toilet facilities, many personnel also carry portable bottles. These are a formal item, provided by USAP, and marked for their intended use. They are 32oz “HDPE” Nalgene bottles.

You can obtain one at the beginning of your season, and it’s your responsibility to return it, thoroughly cleaned and sanitized, before you depart. These are often used by personnel who travel to deep field locations, but they are also helpful for any situation where you may find yourself away from permanent facilities.
