Silly Question

I want to do some tent camping at various places this spring and summer, but that begs a perhaps silly question. That is, where do I pee? If I'm not in an RV, which I wouldn't be, I would have to trek all of the way up to the club house or bathrooms pretty frequently.
Most of the nudist campsites I've seen have their tent area a very long way from any facilities...like in a meadow way out back or way off to the side. I would have to get a wheelchair lift for my van.

Definitely NOT a silly question at all.As long as nobody else can see you, feel free to water natures' landscape,preferably away from your tent.

I tent camp all the time and usually get up a couple times during the night. I just unzip the tent fly and go in the bushes. Once other people start stirring I wrap a towel or throw on shorts and walk to the public toilet. I don't usually camp at nudist resorts because there aren't many of them where I hike. If I am able to set up in a secluded tent site I stay naked as much as possible even outside the tent.

I guess i am spoiled as the tent camping area at the resort we belong to has plenty of well maintained Porta-Potties strategically located. We never have to walk more than a couple hundred feet.

We have always been tent campers at our club. Between my aging bladder and frequent quaffs of beer camping I have found the need to relieve quite frequently as well. If I'm not already by the clubhouse or a Porta Potty I'm like many here. I simply find a discreet place in the bushes or around the back of the tent and let loose. At night its even easier because of the darkness.

If whizzing in the bushes looks like a good option, that's probably what I'd do. But if that's not an option for whatever reason, then one of these can take a little getting used to but can also be a second best option.

If you don't want or feel like going outside, those Ocean Spray bottles work nicely for a makeshift urinal. That's saved me a few times getting up in the middle of the night. Of course, disposing of your "fizzed out" Mountain Dew could be problematic.

I once went tent camping in a rather thorny area of the bush and as usual, needed to pee in the dark of night. Its my age, you see.I got up, naked (of course), unzipped the door and climbed out of the tent straight into a thorn bush to the side of the door. I was barefoot so the thorns on the ground pricked and stabbed my feet while I got tangled into the thorn bush. I had to carefully and gingerly pull the thorn branches off my body, in pitch darkness. All thoughts of peeing left me- I might have released and pissed while being stabbed and poked-I don't know! I did not want to scream or yell as that would have woken up all the other campers! Needless to say, I had some unexplained embarrassingscratches and bruises the next morning!I have since learned my lesson, so I make preparations before bedtime. I take a empty2 litre Coca Cola bottle, cut a big enough hole near the top to fit my penis, and when the time comes I just pee into the bottle. It works even when you have a raging Morning Glory. One just needs to empty the bottle at the nearest bush at the break of dawn, before the rest of the campers start waking up. It works well, and beats having to step out of the tent barefoot,in the dead of night, andwhile it is cold or wet.So that's my contribution as to what one can use an empty Coca Cola bottle for.Kevinash.

I "Go" anywhere that I can't be seen!

At least 200ft from any nearby water source. Other than that, just out of the way, preferably down wind.
