What to do if you get lost in outdoor travel?

People who like to go hiking outdoors often go down the trail (tour route) and often want to go down a new route with no road. It is often easy to get lost and trapped in the mountains. What if you get lost?

1. Try to get back to the mountain where there was a tourist mountain. Even if you have already reached the bottom of the valley and you are already tired, you have to bite your teeth and climb up. Don't be lazy and don't feel lucky to try another way.

2. If you can't find the mountain that originally had a tourist trail, try to find a stream and follow the stream. In general, the stream will lead you out sooner or later. When you come across a waterfall, you have to find a way to bypass the waterfall and continue along the stream.

3. If there are no streams in the mountains, what you should do is still trying to climb a higher hill. According to the sun or distant reference (such as villages, reservoirs, roads) to identify the general direction and orientation, in this direction, select a suitable target hill, easy to identify, to the target hill.

4. If there is only one person for a climber, then the only thing he can do is to continue to look up at the target hill you have chosen before advancing in a good position. As long as you calmly think of ways, It will surely come out of the mountains and get out of danger.

5. If there are many people, consider dividing the people into two groups. One group stays at the top of the hill, while the other group goes down the hill and heads toward another hill that has been selected. People who go down should always look back and consult the followers on the hilltop about their own direction. If you deviate from the correct direction, the people on the top of the mountain must use sounds or gestures to remind them to correct mistakes. When the climbers climbed onto another hill, they again commanded the people who stayed at the top to go down the hill. In this way, using the "relay command" approach to cross, will not be spinning in the valley.

So, how can we avoid getting lost in the outdoors? Did you not get lost with a compass or map? For ordinary mountaineers who lack experience in field activities, these uses are not very useful. The most prudent approach is to walk along the old road. Do not leave the trail by mistake and go down the road from the "new road." If you are interested in taking a new path to “exploration”, be sure to make full preparations. Tell your family and friends before you walk, bring enough food and drinking water, and make a clear signpost along the way to get back if you can't walk out. .
