Planning for Cold Weather Survival July 24, 2023 - An impending sense of panic is familiar to any individual stranded on a windward shore with a gale coming on, disoriented in a maze of bike trails or caught on an exposed ridge with foul weather on the horizon. In many cases, what happens next is the crux moment wherein survival or full blown disaster ensues. Survival starts with the acronym, S.T.O.P. Sit ... Think ...Observe ... Plan ... Rather than giving in to an all-too-human panic response, sit down, take stock and observe your situation and act in a way that likely will save your life. What follows is a lesson applicable to all hikers, hunters, canoeists and others who find themselves exposed and unprepared in falling or already frigid temperatures. Shelter / Warmth While it's beyond the scope of this article to describe shelter making or fire building in detail (shelter can be found in tree wells, in snow caves, and in the hollows of river banks; tinder is less available in winter than summer, none-the-less evergreens will often yield dry needles, pitch impregnated bark can often be sourced and if the snow-pack is not so deep as to disallow it, reserves of dry leaves and grass can be found under trees, rock overhangs and in tree wells), suffice it say that without either, chance of survival diminish. One person's example of what they did was they found a root cavity that provided both shelter and tinder; he sealed it as completely as possible with packed snow, and insulated himself from the ground using evergreen boughs. He managed to nurse a fire which, while it really never took, provided a certain degree of comfort and localized heat. Route Finding Route finding depends on visibility; thus traveling at night, in a white-out or in heavily wooded terrain increases the chances of becoming lost. It's doubly important in these conditions to think, observe and plan ... and to acknowledge that it's not always prudent to act. It's often better to stay put than it is to flounder around in unfamiliar terrain risking further disorientation and injury. Once visibility has returned you will be able to find your way back to your starting point. Visibility - created by smudge fires, markers, signals Hydration Nutrition There is good reason why survival literature frequently describes frozen landscapes as arid ... there's not much alive, and there's not much to eat. As flippant as it seems to say it: getting out sooner than later is a very good idea. Once the situation has stabilized all efforts need to turn towards positioning one's self to being found or logically and methodically finding one's way out. One dies of starvation sooner in winter than summer. Pay attention and don't ignore your turnaround time because with just a slight change in the weather you will find yourself in life threatening conditions.
