The purpose of the simulated recruitment is to let students understand the necessary knowledge and basic skills in the adventure process. They must have the spirit of hard work and not being afraid of difficulties and setbacks. You must have strong perseverance and a strong will.

Attachment: Knowledge about survival in the wild

Metropolitan people get out of the hustle and bustle of the city, break through the constraints of small spaces, go to the wild to get close to and embrace nature, prepare maps, Compass, kettle, food, to experience the excitement of adventure and the fun of survival in the wild, some knowledge of survival in the wild is essential.

Using newspapers to start a fire will not easily ignite the firewood. You can prepare wood chips soaked in lighter fluid in advance, which can easily ignite the fire. Use stones to start a stove. The mouth of the stove should face the wind outlet, and the remaining three sides should be surrounded by stones. The better the air circulation, the stronger the flame. It must be noted that fire should never be used in places where fire is prohibited. Be very careful when putting out fires. Douse the burning fire with water, and after making sure the fire is completely extinguished, carefully clean up the ashes and then cover it with soil to restore it to its original state. This is the most basic moral principle of picnicking.

Be careful when choosing shoes when walking in nature. When walking on uneven roads, the comfort of the shoes is related to the degree of foot fatigue. Walking shoes are light, soft and very mechanical. When buying, you should pay attention to: the strength of the toes and heels should be moderate, and there should be anti-slip stripes; when trying on, the toes should be able to move freely.

It is common to trip over a rock or be cut by a branch, but if the impact is on a vital part, it may become an emergency. If there is only a slight bruise on the hand or foot, you can apply cold water and then lift the affected part higher than the heart. This emergency treatment is enough. Vomiting after a heavy impact on the head is dangerous and must be sent to the hospital as soon as possible.

When you are burned due to a fire in the wild, apply cold water to the affected area first, then slowly rinse the affected area with water for ten minutes, and then ask a doctor for treatment.

In nature, the incidence of injuries and illnesses is high. You should always carry a first aid kit with commonly used medicines and first-aid supplies. For example, abdominal pain or diarrhea is common, and it is best not to eat anything at this time. , first keep your body warm temporarily, lie down and let your abdomen have a good rest. When you have diarrhea, drink plenty of water to stay hydrated.

Shoes and socks for adventure

First of all, let’s talk about shoes: In our daily life, we all pay attention to the shoes that fit our feet, but the shoes worn during outdoor activities do not?quot "fit", but should be at least one size larger than the shoes you usually wear. This is because walking for a long time will cause your feet to swell. If your shoes feel just right when you put them on, they will feel a little tight after walking for a while. Feet. Usually we choose travel shoes for outdoor activities because they are soft, comfortable and easy to walk. General travel shoes for outdoor activities are a wise choice. We need to remind you that when traveling in winter, it is important to keep warm from the cold. Leather-covered shoes are very important. Travel shoes are better than nylon silk travel shoes in terms of cold protection and waterproofing, so they should be the first choice for winter outdoor activities.

Mountain travel has complex terrain, especially gravel slopes. At this time, travel shoes are unable to do their job and can easily lead to injuries to the feet and even legs. Therefore, high-waist hiking shoes with hard soles should be used for mountain travel to protect your ankles. The good fixation of the legs reduces the impact of walking on the knees, making long-distance walking safe and easy.

In addition, it is best not to wear new shoes for outdoor activities. We know that everything has a break-in. The process of running in between your feet and new shoes is best done before going out. The reason is self-evident. Who among us has never experienced being "tortured" by new shoes?

Socks? It is the most appropriate care for your feet. For outdoor activities, wearing pure cotton socks is the best choice. It is soft and sweat-absorbent, so don't forget to keep your feet dry during cold winter trips or activities in high-altitude mountainous areas. Bring 1-2 pairs of pure wool socks, which are very useful when camping. You should bring a few extra pairs of socks for outdoor activities, because accidents such as wet shoes and socks are inevitable.

What if you get lost? Do

Try to go back to the mountain where the tourist trail originally existed. Even if you have reached the bottom and are very tired, you must grit your teeth and climb up. Don’t take chances.

If you can no longer find the mountain with the original tourist trail, try to find a stream and follow it. Generally, the stream will lead you out sooner or later. You should also find a way to bypass the waterfall and continue along the stream.

If there is no stream in the mountain, what you should do is still find a way to climb a higher hill based on the sun or a distant reference. Identify the general direction and orientation of objects (such as villages, reservoirs, roads), select a target hill that is suitable and easily identifiable in this direction, and move towards the target hill.

There are many people in the target hill. If so, you can consider dividing the people into two groups. One group will stay on the top of the mountain, and the other group will go down the mountain and move towards the other hill in the chosen direction. The people who go down the mountain should always look back and consult the people who are staying at the top of the mountain for their direction. If they deviate from the correct direction, the people on the top of the mountain should use sounds or gestures to remind them to correct their mistakes. When the people who are descending climb up another hill, they will direct the people who were originally on the top of the mountain to go down the mountain. In this way, by using the "relay command" method to advance crisscross, you will not be spinning in circles in the valley.

If there is only one climber, then the only thing he can do is to identify the direction when going down the mountain, and keep looking up at the target hill he originally selected before moving forward. As long as you stay calm and calm If you try to find a way, you will definitely get out of the mountain and out of danger.
