Make something of your ride safer

Before I think it was very difficult to get lost in the field or in the mountains. But from what I've seen, is not that difficult, it is more common than it seems. / So here are some survival tips. The most important tip is to NEVER walk alone always accompanied, preferably in groups, and always have someone with experience will accompany this course. The materials needed are: a regional map, a compass, water, flashlight, rope, walk talk, and a whistle./ The map will be necessary to trace the path you want to go with it and use a compass to follow the path as designated by map coordinates. These are the tips for the trip. The water should be used as is the need of your fatigue. Also an object that can be very useful is the flashlight, but the flashlight should be used only at night, when necessary, to save as much as possible from it’s battery. Now go tips in the event something unexpected like, someone from the group, or just fell into a hole, it will be necessary for the rope, walk talk and whistle. The rope is usefull if someone falls into a hole too deep, and so it will help you to remove your colleague there. The walk talk to occur, communication between the separate groups. And the whistle, in case of someone gets lost in the group such, making the person uses it, the sound will spread easily through the site, because these places are usually open, and with that, sound travels better. / Anyway, those are some safety tips if you get lost in the field or in the mountains. One thing that is not very difficult, especially if you have no experience with it.
