For an interesting and informative read on this topic (and related
activities), try "How to Shit in the Woods" by Kathleen Meyer, ISBN
0-89815-319-0. Sea kayaking does get a  mention, it is not woods specific.

The only error in it that I have found is where it suggests that New Zealand
is giardia free - sorry, beavers and bears we don't have, but giardia we do!
