Urinating in public is the key element here...... absent the public being around and in a place likely to cause affront or alarm, there is no violation of this law.
But..... if you are in a watershed on USFS or BLM land, or some place where another law exists, then you still may get tagged for whizzin'. Then the public being around may be a mute point. If the latter is the case, then the law violated should reflect that, and not the urinating in pulic one....
I got chewed out for being in a group that had a little lap dog with us on a hike up to doughnut falls once. Didn't get a ticket, but was threatened to.
I wonder what the deer and elk do in a watershed area when they gotta whiz?
