Best Pee Jars?

I use a quart pedialyte bottle with a few wraps of green electrical tape around it. I work for a sewer authority & green is the color used for marking sewer.

I could never imagine wanting to stay in bed and pee into a bottle.
There could be a blizzard outside, I'd still go outside.
I find fresh air refreshing.

Heres an adventure for that refreshing 3am pee. The outhouse overhangs the cliff.

Ground tent for the win. I think most people overlook this item when drooling over the RTT.

Now, being a mountaineer, not wanting to go outside during a snowstorm or when it’s 0 degrees presents a similar problem. A wide mouth Gatorade bottle is great. You drink the Gatorade on the hike in and then you’ve got a vessel to refill later…

+1 on ground tent for the win, but as a veteran, I've just been using the aforementioned 32 oz Gatorade bottles for the last 20 years. There's been times I've used them WHILE driving down MSR Tampa in Iraq. Lol. I do like the idea of the detergent bottles though. Plus they can be a little bigger.

I think a lot of men on this thread are ignoring the fact that Urologists world wide are adamant about and united in their recommendations about getting out of your vehicle, standing and completely draining your bladder as a preventative and potentially life extending procedure. There is even evidence of this.

i agree with that, but I don’t camp every night.

I can think of lots of reasons (like 50000) to "do it" inside :giggle:. You are an x-northern, I am sure you remember........
Picture is taken on the Thelon River in the NWT/NU. We will be paddling it in about 3 months!!

Abbot's pass hut? That was an adventure if the wind was blowing up through the hole.
Close, Bow Hut. The old Bow Hut by the glacier. Have you heard Abbot Pass Hut is being torn down this spring. The mountain has shifted and the structure is fractured. So sad, Abbot Pass Hut is one of the classic BIG mountaineering huts. And such a location on the continental divide
between Lake Louise and Lake O'Hara....
Location, Location, Location

Bow Hut in October, ....1984.

First trip to Bow Hut Frank and I motored ahead of the group thinking we knew where we were going. At some point as we were about to cross a pass into a new valley I said.... lets stop and look around.... we should be able to see Bow Hut from here..... Well looking back at where we came from.... there it was Bow Hut and the outhouses on the horizon. We got there an hour after the slow group.

I hate to think where we might have ended up if we just kept motoring.... It would have been a cold night.
