By Erna Gutierrez


Those who possess adventurous spirits ensure that they make the most out of the things that they do. They do things impulsively, but they are also very careful while doing so. If you want to go on a trip on the wild side, then you must bring necessary wilderness survival supplies and remember a few things to have a great time.

Wilderness is best defined as a property made up of lands that do not have much cultivation and settlements. Others describe them as areas that are not tamed. The claim can be true and false in some ways. However, it is false because the place shelters living things like plants and wild animals. Some of these properties are sometimes privately maintained by private entities. Even so, many of these lands does not have inhabitants.

Due to the fact that not a lot of people try to visit uninhabited areas, it is normal to expect that special aid is not accessible in them. If you are interested in having a trip to the wilderness, you must put your safety into careful consideration. To do so, you must be mindful of first aid techniques that will be very helpful in case an unfortunate event will take place during your trip.

You can learn the following by enrolling in first aid classes. Hands on practice and training are accessible through private agencies. At least two days are needed to finish these classes that often ends with the giving of completion certificates.

As you prepare for your trip, you must bring along a first aid book and kit. You must also observe proper clothing to avoid anything that may cause you harm. Be prepared physically by maintaining a balance diet and exercising daily to avoid getting sick.

When you arrive in the wild, you need to review what you have learned from the class that you took. If something bad happens, you have to be calm enough so that you can manage the situation well. Say you are the victim, you also need to do the same and stay calm.

In case somebody else becomes the victim of the accident, you must try to keep him warm and lying down. Do not move the injured person if you have not determined the extent of the injuries. If he is not breathing, you must start providing him mouth to mouth artificial respiration immediately. If he has open wounds, you must do your best to stop the bleeding.

In case the person may be in the middle of shock, you have to make him feel better by assuring him that he is going to be okay. Continue to do thorough checking for bruises, cuts, bites and other injuries. Keep people away from the person and do not take of his clothing if not imperative.

If the injured person has to be transported to the nearest proper medical facility, then go ahead. However, if it is impossible, you must prepare an area that is suitable for him to stay for the meantime. Ensure that you will use the wilderness survival supplies that you have brought.
