Description
Each year hundreds of outdoor enthusiasts find themselves in an unexpected outdoor emergency. They get lost, injured, or stranded. Cut off from the rest of the world, they have to depend upon their survival skills to survive. For most people, thanks to modern communications such as cell phones, satellite messengers, and personal locator beacons (PLB), it is merely a sobering two- or three-hour adventure. However, for some who did not take the proper precautions before they left home or do not have survival skills, it can end in tragedy. This book offers practical advice to help with building a fire, purifying water, identifying common edible plants and mushrooms, signaling for help, building simple shelters, practical navigation skills, treating wounds, responding in a medical emergency, and more.
