Field Survival Knowledge: How to judge direction and travel in complex terrain

Survival in the wild, strictly speaking, people live in the mountains and forests where there is no living accommodation. However, as more and more people walk into the outdoors and go into nature, its meaning is also much broader, and it enters the stage of “Military Transformation”. , began more emphasis on how our ordinary people approach nature and explore the wonderful world we have not known. Here Xiaobian gave you some field survival knowledge and hoped it would help.

First, the use of natural features to determine the direction

In the absence of topographic maps and compasses and other standard equipment, soldiers must master methods that use natural features to determine direction.

Using the sun to determine azimuth is very simple

A benchmark (straight rod) can be used to make it perpendicular to the ground. Put a stone on the vertex A of the benchmark shadow; after about 10 minutes, when the vertex of the benchmark shadow moves to B, put a stone again. Connect the two points A and B into a straight line. The direction of this line is the east-west direction. The direction perpendicular to the connection with AB is north-south, and the end toward the sun is south.

Use the pointer watch to determine the direction of the sun. The method is: When the watch is placed horizontally, the position halved by the time indicated by the hour hand (half-hour) is facing toward the sun, and the direction indicated by the time at 12 o'clock on the dial is roughly north. If the current time is 16 o'clock, then the scale of the watch at 8 o'clock points to the sun, and at 12 o'clock the degree refers to the north.

When the weather is fine at night, you can use Polaris to determine the direction. To find the Polaris, we must first find the Bear Constellation (known as the Big Dipper of ours). The constellation consists of seven stars, beginning with a spoon. When the Big Dipper is found, the line connecting the A and B stars on the side of the scoop extends towards the spout about 5 times the distance between the A and B stars. A brighter star is the Polaris. Polaris indicates the direction of the north. You can also use the constellation opposite to the Big Dipper to search for Polaris. The immortal constellation consists of five stars that are similar in brightness to the Big Dipper, shaped like W. In front of the center of the W-shaped notch, about twice the width of the entire notch, Polaris can be found.

The use of feature features to determine azimuth is a subsidy method. When used, it should be flexibly used according to different situations. The independent tree is usually lush in the south and has a smooth bark. The annual rings on tree stumps are usually thin in the south and dense in the north. The main doors of rural houses, doors and windows and temples usually open south. The snow in buildings, mounds, fields, and highlands is usually fast in the south and slow in the north. Large rocks, mounds, and trees are densely planted in the south, while the north is prone to moss.

When you are lost in the field, do not panic. Instead, stop immediately. Always calmly recall the path you have taken and try your best to reorient it in accordance with all possible signs. Then look for the road again. The most reliable way is to “return to the wrong place” and return to the original place of origin.

After disorienting in the mountains, you should first ascend to see what direction you should go. Usually, we should go in the direction of a low ground, so that it is easy to hit the water and make the river the safest. This is especially important in the forest. Because roads and residential areas are often built on the waterfront.

If you encounter an awkward road and you are at a loss, you must first clarify the direction you want to go and then choose the right path. If the directions of several roads are roughly the same and cannot be determined, then the middle road should be taken first. This can be a source of right and left. Even if you take the wrong path, you will not deviate too far.

Second, the complex terrain marching method

In the mountains, in order to avoid disorientation, save energy, improve the speed of progress, and strive to have a path not to climb through the mountains, there is no road to take the road, if there is no road, you can choose the longitudinal beams, ridges, mountainsides, river creeks Edges, and high terrain with thin forests, large gaps, and low grass cover. We must strive not to leave the ditch without walking, and do not walk horizontally.

When you are on the move, you can walk very quickly. This way down tens of kilometers, you can take tens of thousands of steps. When tired, apply a relaxed slow pace to rest without stopping. When climbing a rock, you should carefully observe the rock, carefully identify the quality and weathering of the rock, and determine the direction and route of climbing.

The basic method of climbing a rock is the “fixed three points” method, in which the rest of the hand or foot is moved after the two hands or feet are fixed and the body center of gravity is moved upward. Hands and feet should be well coordinated to avoid moving at the same time, must be stable, light, fast, according to their own situation to select the most suitable distance and the most stable pivot, do not stride and grasp, sway too far.

Climbing below 30 degrees can rise in a straight line. When climbing, the body leans forward, the entire foot touches the ground, the knees are bent, and the legs are out of a “character shape”. Do not move too fast or too fast. When the slope is greater than 30 degrees, the zigzag climbing route is generally adopted. When climbing, the legs are slightly curved, the upper body is leaned forward, the inner toe is forward, the entire foot is on the ground, and the lateral toe is slightly outward. When you accidentally slip during your journey, you should immediately face the hillside, open your arms but straighten your legs, tilt your toes, and move your body up as far as possible to reduce the speed of your gliding. In this way, you can try to find climbers and supports in the gliding. Never sit face to face because it will not only slide faster, but it will also roll over on steeper slopes.

Rivers are often encountered obstacles in mountainous and plain areas. When you encounter rivers, do not waste your time and water. Look carefully to determine the location and method of crossing the river. Mountainous rivers often have rapid water flow, low water temperatures and rough riverbeds. When involved in crossing, in order to maintain the balance of the body, it should be supported in the upstream direction of the water with a noon, or hand weight of 15 to 20 kg of stone. When a group participates in a crossing, three or four people may be in a row, embracing each other shoulders, and the body with the strongest body is located in the upstream direction.

Optical Glasses according to the current fashion style, popular elements into design, specially for facial modification, can better show the taste.
