I hadn't yet found a need to pee in a hammock ......
but,
and I'm not sure just where I heard this .....
so I'm in big game country in Colorado.
Big Cats and Bears here and there ......
so I save up my pee so I can pee as high onto the trees as I can.
You know, the biggest animal out there kind of thing.
Just in Case!
What do y'all think of that?
I rarely ever have to go at home and almost always get a 3:00 call when camping. Someone said it the body's way to get warm by eliminating the liquid.
Anyway, I recommend a short, fat Downy fabric softener bottle.

He is your friend, your companion, your defender... he is your dog. You are his life, his leader, and master. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of that devotion.
when it gets so cold you pee the orbit of an atom electron, it cold enough to use a pee bottle.

If you don't have to go in the middle of the night you haven't hit 40 yet! The ol' prostrate just ain't what it used to be!
I have a buddy who pissed into an empty Mt Dew bottle, woke up the next morning and took a nip. He knew it wasn't Mt. Dew right away.Originally Posted by earplug94
Never slept in a HH before, but I love physical comedy and I can just picture someone trying to lean forward to pee out the bottom entry, slipping and landing on their face right where they were urinating. That'd be one great story.
You and me are kindred spirits.You and me both.
I get up two or three times during the night. Get up, take a leak, smoke a cigar, enjoy the night sounds & sites, stomp a bit and eat a candy bar if it's cold and then go back to bed.
When it seems like the night will last forever
And there's nothing left to do but count the years
When the strings of my heart start to sever
And stones fall from my eyes instead of tears
I will walk alone by the black muddy river
And dream me a dream of my own

[QUOTE=Rug;577965]Well IMHO this was a benefit to the henessy entry method. You could 'sit-up', put your feet out of the hammock, and be upright enough to urinate without spilling on yourself.
Been there, Done that. Awfully convenient.

This is sooo funny...
I have to disagree with the Hennessy bottom entry being convenient. First, there was a pad in the way and then when I got to the velcro I could not force it open with my foot. Not something you want to have happen when your body is under duress. I barely made it out in time.
Give me the top loader anytime.

When I do this I use a Gatorade bottle also, and on my side. If it's -36F out there, I'm NOT getting out.
It depends what you use for insulation though. I have backpacking sleeping bags that fit too snug to pull this off.
I get up and go. Some of the best starwatching opportunes at 2AM! ;o)
