Outdoor sports, especially hiking, orienteering, mountaineering, etc. are carried out in the wild In sports, getting lost is one of the most common accidents. Outdoor sports experts Luoyang and Fengyue said that after getting lost in the wild, the key is to use the correct method to call the police for help, which will greatly increase your chances of being found.
The right way to call for help:
When you realize you’re lost, don’t panic and stay calm.
Call for rescue as soon as possible.

If you have to leave due to uncontrollable factors (such as bad weather, wild animals and other foreseeable dangers that will threaten life), you must try to inform the rescue party of the direction you are leaving, and leave obvious signs along the way.
Keep your mind calm and happy, don’t panic. Divert attention by talking, eating, sleep
ing (not sleeping in snow, rain, and bad weather), avoid unnecessary activities, and conserve physical strength as much as possible.

When the team gets lost, don’t scatter to find a way, and under no circumstances can act alone. If someone has to set out for rescue, divide them as evenly as possible, preferably with male companions in both groups. After the rescue team set off, the left-behind members stayed where they were and waited for rescue.

Fengyue: When exploring wild, snowy mountains and other sparsely populated areas, you must not go alone. Go with people you know well, and don’t make a temporary team when you arrive at the local area. The team should be at least 4 people, and the companions must have male companions and two or more people with expedition experience.

Injury is the last thing we want to see but can’t avoid, so some basic ambulance knowledge and skills are undoubtedly a must for everyone Common sense is required. In outdoor sports, these rescue methods are even more important.

In the face of natural disasters, life is vulnerable. Not traveling in bad weather is awe of nature and respect for life. It is a necessary preparation to check the weather conditions and geographical features of the destination before traveling.
Self-rescue method for sudden natural disasters:
Thunderstorm
When a thunderstorm comes, it’s like being in an open, flat, forest When waiting for lightning-prone areas, you should stop quickly, discard all metal objects on your body, and squat down quickly (if the backpack is made of waterproof fabric, you can sit on the backpack, not on the ground), hold your head with both hands, and curl your body as much as possible into a group. If possible, take precautions against rain to prevent your clothes from getting wet.
You can get up about 15 minutes after the thunder is gone, and move to a safe area as soon as possible. When a team travels and encounters lightning, members must spread out.
Currents
In most cases, flat land is safer than water, unless absolutely necessary, do not choose to cross water easily. When you must do this, take off your clothes to cross, and then put your clothes back on after the crossing is complete, so as to prevent the clothes from getting wet and causing loss of temperature. Before crossing the river, try to find a thick and long wooden stick. In addition to supporting the body and reducing the risk of slipping, it can also test the water height to avoid sudden danger.
