How to Survive in the Woods for 3 Days

Ever been on a hike--admiring the wild flowers, gazing up at the tips of the trees--and suddenly found yourself completely alone and lost? What would happen to you if you couldn't find your way back to safety? While being lost in the woods can be a frightening experience, surviving alone in the wild is generally a matter of common sense, patience, and wisely using the gifts that nature provides. All you need to survive for a few days is shelter, warmth, food, and water.

what were the craziest shows you've been too?

It's "to" not "too" and even then you'd be ending a sentence with a preposition, pally.

My sincere thanks for your reply.

1. Before you do anything else, stop. Stand still and look around carefully. If you're not absolutely sure where you are and how to get back to familiar territory, don't proclaim, "I think it's this way." The more you move once you realize you're lost, the worse your chances are of finding your way back. Wherever you are will become your "point zero." Find a way to mark it using a spare piece of clothing, a pile of rocks, a sheet of paper, or anything else easily visible from a distance.

2. Take a deep breath and stay calm. Panic is more dangerous than almost anything else, because it interferes with your most useful and versatile survival tool: your mind. If you're hanging from a rope halfway down a mountainside with a broken leg then remind yourself that people have survived exactly this situation.

3. Signal your location to maximize the odds that someone finds you. Make noise by whistling or banging rocks together. If you can, mark your location in such a way that it's visible from the air. In sandy areas, mark a triangle in the sand. If you're in a mountain meadow, make three piles of dark leaves in a triangle. In a forest, you may want to prepare three small fires with wet leaves nearby in order to make smoke (but see the precautions below), ready to ignite at a moment's notice, then pile the leaves on for smoke. Starting to see a pattern? Three of anything in the wilderness is a standard distress signal.

Even 3 blind mice?

4. Start scouting your area, carefully keeping track of your location. Be sure you can always find your way back to your "point zero" as you search for water, shelter, or your way home.

Ha! Fucking insane is what you are. Love the way you bumped all your threads back to the top.
Anyway... Why haven't you mentioned anything about vantage or reference points?
It seems like you want to stay in the wilderness by scouting the area for food, water and shelter.

Tokolosh · 11.15.2006, 10:05 AM

By the way... and I'm not joking when I say this. If you're really lost and dying of hunger, you can resort to starting a forest fire. That will draw attention. I know someone who got rescued by doing that.

stenson · 11.15.2006, 10:21 AM

Aww the coolest part is setting up one of them tarps and using it to collect rainwater if you can't find any already

I would never, ever go into a fucking woods, even if I were on a motherfucking casual stroll, without a motherfucking three- to four-day supply of food and water. Period. In addition to knives, flares, rope, tent, etc. I will not put myself in the postion of being surrounded by motherfucking snakes or having to eat motherfucking bugs in a motherfucking woods.

So I guess the local zoo would be out of the question?
