The Rule of Palmar Surface: the patient’s palm (including fingers) is equal to 1% of their total body surface area (TBSA). Consider evacuation if partial thickness (2nd degree) burns total 5% or more, or of any full thickness burns (3rd degree) have occurred, as management becomes problematic in field conditions. The leading cause of burn injuries in the outdoors is cooking accidents. #survival #camping #hiker #backpacking #medic #rescue

Having a fixed point in the sky which also aligns with true north is very useful. It allows you to stay oriented as you move through the night. With knowledge of the exact angle a star is on the horizon, as well as the exact current time, ship’s navigators could use sextants and star charts to guide ships across the globe. With knowledge of the North Star, you may be able to get “unlost” on a trip. #survival #backpacking #navigation #astronomy #camping #adventure #travel

Quinzee style shelters have been used around the globe for winter survival for a very long time. *Pile the snow high enough to dig out a living space inside. *Inster approx 18” branches all around, which will serve as depth gauges as you dig. If you hit a stick, stop digging or your wall will be too thin. *Allow the pile to settle for at least two hours and “sinter”. Basically form into a sold block. *Now it’s ready to dig out. Remember, you only need enough room to lay down and sit up, not stand or walk around. *Always place a signal outside your shelter as soon as safely possible. #survival #bushcraft #backpacking #ski #mountaineering #snow #survivalskills
