alrights guys
this post is going to be about the upcoming orienteerin
basically its going to be a reminder of the things they taught on that day
What to do when you are lost...
1) Backtrack
- follow the route you originally took but in the opposite direction so that you could get back to your original position and maybe start taking another route
2) Locate prominent objects
- try to find prominent objects (objects that are still and are of significance) around you (that are on the map) so as to show yourself where you are at that time. Once you are clear of your location, you could start planning a route to get yourself back onto the original track
3) Find true north
- Rotate the compass round until the red needle points to north, which is indicated on your given compass. Then, align it with the north arrow your given map. Then you could start finding your way around
Stuffs to take note
- when encountering a dog, squat down and stare at it, at the same time backing off slowly
- when encountering bees, cover neck with poncho. Then lay on the ground, still and wait for them to go
- when encountering a boar, either take another route or wait for it to back off. When chased, run in zigzag directions. DO NOT CONFRONT IT!!!!
- if your partner is very tired, take a short break before continuing
- do not take dirt tracks, they might be dangerous
- if your partner is seriously injured or when your group is really lost, blow the whistle that you brought. help would arrive
- walk along the sides of the road, not at the centre
- stay with your partner at all times
- no communication between groups at all times.
for more information, you could also refer to your test paper
thats all, byebye
ya hope that might be more people posting
