Forest Facilities.—Before the Interstate system was connected, the were random “Rest Stops” along the highways. Picnic tables, out house, and a well with a hand pump. As kids, we thought pumping the water was fun.
Supposedly before the adoption of the more familiar male and female bathroom symbols, it was common to use a crescent moon to denote that an outhouse was for women and a sun to denote that it was an outhouse for men. … Thus, only the women’s outhouses were left regularly used and the others went the way of the dodo.

Don’t go in there if you want to stay regular.

Leaving a dump sounds less messy than taking one.

I’ve been calling them “Recycling Centers”. Rule is “Dump here, pee in the woods”.

Actually, National Parks call them “comfort stations.” At least they’re nicer than the ones in the National Forests.

Some national and state and provincial parks in other countries also have hiker’s huts along the trail where one can spend the night.
