If you lose your calm, you lose your sense of direction and your ability to help. During an emergency, families need to decide together on the best plan of action, examining the resources available. Before your trip, notify friends and families of your destination and time of return. And sign up at park registers before and after wilderness treks. If you've provided your child with a whistle and instructed him to wait in a sheltered area if he's lost, you should be able to find him more readily.
Survey campsites for riverbanks and cliffs.
Check out climbing trees for dead branches and moss, both of which cause falls. Children can learn about the world around them while exploring the outdoors, and you can continue to enjoy camping and the woods safely. For specific medical advice, diagnoses, and treatment, consult your doctor.
