How did Antarctic explorers go to the bathroom?

Antarctic explorers used a variety of methods for bathroom needs, depending on their location and conditions. In the field, they often relied on portable toilets or "groovers," which were simple boxes with a toilet seat and a waste collection system. In more permanent camps, they might have had a designated outhouse or a similar setup, while ensuring waste was properly disposed of to prevent contamination of the fragile environment. Managing sanitation in extreme cold was crucial for health and hygiene.
