Plan ahead for outdoor safety By Darius Foster * WCnewsmagazine WCnewsmagazine The smell of the outdoors is such a warm and pleasant aroma. In While you are out: western North Carolina, we are fortunate to have the great outdoors rightin our back yard. There are so many sceneries to see and an abundance of activities to do. Mother Nature certainly does a wonderful job of overwhelming 0 us with a lot to do all within her realm. Although some outdoor activities 0 involve little preparation and are generally risk free, it is always important to follow safety procedures in all events, for your safety, the safety of others and for those that care about you. No matter the circumstance, safety (0 procedures should always be taken seriously prior to venturing off into the Be aware of your surroundings and avoid anything that might seem suspicious. Always be cautious and use good judgment. If you are hunting, rock climbing, camping or canoeing make sure you know. what you are doing. If you have any questions, at least have someone with expertise readily available in case you need assistance. If you are in a group, dont venture off without saying something to your party. Always stay within close distance of the area you are stationed. great outdoors. Here are a couple of great safety tips to keep in mind when In case of an emergency: doing outdoor activities such as rock climbing, canoeing, hiking, hunting, fishing, camping or any other type of activity not listed. Before you go: ) Make sure you let someone close to you know the exact location of where you will be, how long you plan to be there and what time you plan to return. (| Be prepared for emergencies, pack first-aid kits, maps, a flash-light and extra equipment just in case the unthinkable occurs. Make sure you know what you are getting into. Be familiar with a certain hiking trial, camp site and/or water areas. that may be new to you. lt would also be beneficial to make sure your cell-phone is fully charged. lf you happen to have a spare battery, bring it along; its better tobe safe thanea SOrry damaged ine iand in Some. .piaces 1ASe Q e in wildernes ~ \asill sily hay 1 anvarea atta, 7aAS5 VCODVIE WiCeii > all . V SUGIY < 1) AQVEeETSEe StreCct On There are many ways people affect or participating. in outdoor activities their surroundings when camping They can have visual, audible or physical impacts. Likewise;:responsible campers find themselves doing things to keep their impact at a minimum. It is extremely important for the beginner to understand what he/she should and should not do when enjoying an outdoor experience. Impacts on the Environment Visual: |magine you are a black bear and one of your favorite places to visit while looking for food is a local, pristine lake. Upon arrival, you notice that a family of campers with a large yellow tent has made a campsite near the shore. You are confused and do not know what to do, and since in general, animals shy away from human contact, you now cannot visit the lake, and you will miss out on the food and water you normally get from it. Although that is a whimsical example, the visual impact that humans create by disturbing an environment while camping is major. At most campsites, excluding larger, more popular areas, animals still have not become acclimated to human presence. If you must camp in an underused camping area, try and be courteous to the local wildlife; use a tent that blends in with foliage. In major campsites, try to use a tent that isnt flashy or a really bright color. Other campers may not want to see it. Audible: You decide that you want to go camping in an area popular with - In case of an unlikely event, the best thing to do is stay calm. Relax and focus on getting out of whatever situation may be. If severe weather suddenly strikes, have a second plan ready to implement. Also, make sure you are aware of a location that will keep you secure from the weather. In case of lighting, drop anything metal and stay away from tall trees. lf you are injured, make sure you have supplies that will aid with your injury such as ice, band aids, alcohol, anti-bacterial cream and splints. In the unlikely event that you might be by yourself when an emergency occurs, have a way of contacting emergency response units. A cell pase, he capi talkies, Hales horns..and- whistles are all good ways of ING ut 1 tree HC QISCi IDOUT | oaging Camping > cases, May aisturd oiner Campers ed, fly away fron their hatc hiings and do not return. Physical: As a beginning camper, you and your buddies decide to set up camp sikcieknen a mature oak tree. As with most campsites, everyone decides campfire is a must. Your buddies soon decide to chop away at the oak, oblivious to the fact that green wood burns slow, not to mention a family of gray squirrels has made their home in the upper branches. When the tree falls, you see two mature squirrels scamper away. You make nothing of the observation until cutting the branches down to burning size. Then you notice the smashed nest and crushed babies. It shocks you. Cutting trees for campsites is a common practice. The insolent campers were oblivious to the wildlife around them, disturbing and destroying the squirrels. winter home and killing their young. Campers, beginners and experienced, can educate themselves about proper campsite maintenance and the impact they will have on local wildlife. Libraries hold-books on proper camping techniques, and the sporting goods section of your local retailer will carry many items, such as lanterns, to substitute for campfires. : This is only a brush against the large impact that humans have on the environment. Much of the damage caused during outdoor activities comes from irresponsibility and ignorance. Anyone planning to go camping or ATVing should take into consideration the impact they will have on the wilderness around them. Educating yourself against that damage will help protect the environment, along with preserving it for future use. 13 ng i i i el
