What?!?!?!
Someone downstream has to drink from that river!  Don't you think deer,
elk, and bears pee on the shore?  I think improper disposal of solid
waste (#2) and toilet paper is the bigger problem--pee at least 100 feet
from water!!!!  I don't want to have to hope my MSR filter will filter
out the stuff your bladder didn't want anymore!!

Peeing in the ocean is a different story than peeing in a "fresh" water
source.
