I have used a "scatpacker" system for about 5 years on river trips
(canoe/raft).  Unfortunately it is too big to fit into a sea kayak.  It
is basically a bucket with a ratcheting device on the lid, a good gasket
and a purge valve. I think the Lake Powell regulations prohibit plastic
bags but would allow a homemade container which can be dumped into one
of their disposal stations.  It does not have to have an RV type hose. 
BTW- no one checked us out for compliance when I was there recently. 
	 I called the makers of the scatpacker this morning and suggested that
they make one to fit sea kayaks.  
	When are you planning your Lake Powell trip?  I went down for the first
time two weeks ago and would like to go back when it is less busy.  I'm
planning to write up a short trip report if I can ever get through the
accumulated paddlewise e-mails!  If I find a solution to the portable
toilet I'll post it.
