I sometimes climb 'big walls' in Yosemite were there is a requirement to take your solid human waste with you - we use a similar pipe called the 'poop tube'. People used to go in brown paper bags and toss these off the wall and they would litter the base of the climbs. Now we just pop them in the tube and dispose of them later. I don't think putting the crap in with a trowel would be very nice! Top tip - roll the top of the bag down to form a sort of ring to keep the opening open...
