Several people have mentioned the "calls of nature", ie pissing out of a high seat.

I thought it was an absolute NO-NO to do anything like this near a stand or a high seat. Either using a bottle or leaving the area by a good distance. Nothing would scare away a game animal quicker than human urine. Try it oneday on a game path and see the results.

A bottle is OK, but ask Bakes how some of this working compatriots use alfoil.

Actually, my mentioning the "calls of nature" was more meant in a joking sense.

BUT! I have had a couple of instances where there was no way out, and had to take a leak. One trick that works well is to bring a heavyduty "Ziplock" plastic baggy. Piss in it, zip it up, and put it on the floor (preferably where you won't step on it!). This works for women too!

When you leave the highseat, just bring it with you and empty it when you're far enough away, and dispose of the bag later.

Re. the "alufoil brownies". It's a bit unpleasant, and luckily no hunting I do is so important as to warrent this solution to disposing of yesterdays meals...

Btw, like alufoil, Ziplock bags can be used for "heavy stuff" too!
