What extreme sanitation issue is described at Lobuje camp?

• A. An overflowing toilet situation, with a river of feces flowing through the camp.
• B. Clean, well-maintained restrooms.
• C. Subsurface drainage forming a neat canal.
• D. Moderate sanitation with portable toilets.

Answer: (A)

The key idea here is how quickly sanitation can collapse in a remote, high‑traffic camp when the facilities aren’t able to cope. The description of an overflowing toilet system and a river of feces flowing through the camp signals a dramatic breakdown in waste management. That kind of situation creates immediate and severe health risks—contaminated water and food, flies and odors, and a hostile living environment for climbers and staff who must spend days in the camp. It goes beyond normal sanitation issues and shows a crisis where waste is physically moving through communal areas, directly affecting safety and daily functioning. The other scenarios describe much more manageable or orderly conditions—clean restrooms, a neat drainage canal, or only moderate sanitation with portable toilets—none of which convey the extreme, hazardous reality implied by waste overflowing through the camp.
