How north nomads go to the toilet & take a shower when -58°F, -50°C. Not like we do!

Ойын-сауық

Many many people asked about this particular part of reeindeer herders life. People from tundra are very shy when it comes to talk about this. But still it is obvious they have to go to the toilet and wash themselves...
But how do they do it when there is no WC or simply a shower in tundra!
Let's see!

    Having camped and hunted and fished in severe cold weather I have the deepest respect and admiration for these people. All I can say is this not easy and it can be exhausting by the time you lay down to sleep at night you are completely spent from work,chores,hunting,cooking and trying to stay warm. Equipment can fail in severe cold, components break or snap in your hands etc etc, unless you have been there and done it it is very hard to explain to people unfamiliar with extreme cold. Acclimating to the cold takes time, 20F can feel like a heat wave after -30F. What you wear that day can mean the difference between comfort and distress. Falling into a frozen lake is another experience you may wish to avoid, with no one around you may die in 15-20minutes unless you save yourself. You can’t do stupid stuff and live.

    I've been winter hiking in Finnish Lapland countless if times. I have always had a principle that I wash myself before making a camp. I do it in smallish streams or if I can't find any, in snow. Streams typically stay melted where high current spots get covered with snow. Washing myself in a snow is not a problem, even in -30C, unless there are heavy winds. Some may think it makes me cold for entire evening but it's totally opposite. When you have skid in deep snow with heavy backpack for entire day, your body is used for excess heat. Clothes are also a bit damp from sweat and don't insulate well. Normally you'll get cold after you stop moving, no matter how much clothes you put on. After little wash in a cold, I put on dry set of wool and fleece and soon warm heat spread all over the body. It really tell the body it's time to start making the heat. While cold water don't wash as well as hot, it'll do it surprisingly well, if being done right. Body heats small amount of water really easily, so it's better start by putting it on the most critical areas first using hand and rub the area as the water warms up.

    A Yurt is a Mongolian style tent with walls and a slanted roof, which are different from the straight Tipi style tents. Here in Norway we call the these Tipi style tents for _Lavvo._ It's a Sami (Finno Ugric) word. The West Siberain Nenets tribe call them _Chum,_ however. And East Siberians call them _Yaranga._

    Yarangas are yurt-like buildings, but more simply built, they aren't straight like "chums". By the way, word "chum" comes from Russian language. The native peoples themselves call those buildings differently than Russians, and names in each language differ.

    It was hearwarming tosee that the dogs and puppies are inside the tent with their people. That they are not left outside, as seems to be the usual case with "snowdogs". It was also good to see how the puppies and people are enjoying each others comapny. I could never live in a constant snowstorm like that. And move in the midst of it. Via a river. God, these people are resilient. How do the dogs move with them if they go inside the water? Swim as well? or do they come on the baggage sledges or what? It is interesting.

    This is reminding me of fascinating books about families around the world by Faith D'Aluisio and Peter Mensel. In one they photographed them with a years worth of food outside in a pile. In another, with all the family's possessions. In a third they interviewed women around the world about their lives. The majority of families did NOT have running water. Many washed their clothes in water they hauled by hand, rivers, or drainage ditches. Some had only 1 or 2 pair of clothes which they washed by hand at night, hung to dry then put on the next day. From winter camping I can say, you don't actually want to swim or shower when it's that cold! And if you are living out in fresh air, eating a natural diet, you don't actually notice. Some cultures are lucky to have the fuel for saunas, or sweat lodges. Even in the US not long ago baths or showers weren't that common. I remember talking to a middle aged man 40 years ago. He'd grown up in a house with one room where the fireplace was, and food was cooked. The kids all slept overhead in the unheated loft on hay bales.They had no electric lights. They had one wash weekly,... with water heated and poured on a kid sitting in a wash basin. The same water was reused for all the kids one by one, oldest first and youngest last, with probably a little new wash water poured over each.

    Vegetarians would not survive there. Animals and man are interwoven, they depend on one another for survival, even salt. Where the heck would you get a salt block in the middle of the tundra, this is nature at it's toughest no amazon or animal feed stores here. These are real nature people. The animals are vegetarian but their body metabolism is different than human. Vegetarians and vegans do better in hot or warmer climates where vegetables and fruits are more easily grown. You do not have to produce much body heat in warmer climates. Not every every human species was set up to eat plants, it depended on their environment.
