Grossed Out By the Idea of a Pee Rag? You Shouldn't Be.
So... you've heard of pee rags, but you aren't quite ready to try one. It sounds pretty gross. I mean, who wants to carry a urine soaked piece of cloth on the outside of their backpack for the world to see? Actually, there are plenty of good reasons... some about you, and some about the wilderness. Let's first look at what a pee rag is and how it's used.
