Overflowing your bottle
Just curious - has anyone ever overflowed their pee bottle in the middle of the night? I have a great fear of it. I'm sure this phobia has a legitimate name.

Overphlowbia?
I'm not really a hiker, I just play one on White Blaze.
Urinoverthetopolis??
Use a 32oz gatoraid bottle and you shouldn't have to worry. Most men's bladders won't hold more than 20 oz. My doctor seems happy when I can squeeze out 16 oz. The 16oz doctor thing is something us old geezers have to do

and don't mistake it for gator aid in the middle of the night
fresh unine is sterile. if you drink it you may gag but it won't hurt you.and don't mistake it for gator aid in the middle of the night

Yeah but I don't want the extra salt...hypertension you know!
may not hurt you, but I can see a ruined sleeping bag in the picture
Might be a good way to make sure you have the shelter all to yourself though.

Didn't know that 20oz thing, but I guess I could have looked it up too. At one point I actually thought of using a gallon ziploc, just to be sure, but then I knew I'd be concerned that I didn't seal it correctly. On my bike ride today, I homogenized in my head how "Overflow" would be received as my trail name. Probably not too well.

That is why I sleep in a tent. I don't even have to get up. I open the tent zipper, roll on my side and let it fly. By morning the ground has soaked it all up.

i dont understand the concept of the bottle. you travel with a bottle for the sole purpose to pee in? why? why not just go pee in the woods like normal people. with all the concerns over carrying the extra grams on WB why on earth would you carry a bottle to pee in. oh wait, never mind, you recycle. u pee in it at night because ur are to effing lazy to get ur lazy butt out of the shelter or tent. and then drink out of it during the day. or u r one of those that leave it at the shelters. either way it is pretty effing gross.
Looks like it would be more trouble to pee in a bottle than to just get up and go outside... nothing as invigorating as snow flakes landing on a naked body, make you feel alive.
aircraft flying overhead, the zing and ricochet of rounds, sand in every crevice has the same effect. you realize life. peeing in a bottle seems like preparation for death. if you still got legs be thankful and use them.
And I thought my pee vessel anxiety was abnormal.

abnormal and failure to conform is healthy. be unique, live long, and die strong and fast. or you can contract pecker to lips disease by drinking from you stupid pee bottle. your choice. you do you and i will go the opposite.
get you butt up and go in the woods
Boy oh boy, if only pecker to lips WERE fatal. My ex would be ancient history.
Don't drink anything after 7pm... no worries... your bladder can only hold 14-16 ounces...
