Phone with internet access
Activity:
What do you do if someone breaks a leg while you’re hiking in the mountains? Or how do you help someone who has nearly drowned on a boat trip? Research wilderness emergencies in this activity.
Find out about common injuries. Go online and research injuries suffered by people participating in an outdoor activity you enjoy, such as canoeing or skiing. If you can, interview someone from a search-and-rescue squad or emergency response unit about how they treat those injuries, how you can get help if someone is injured, and what to do while you’re waiting for help to arrive. It doesn’t have to be in person-you could do the interview by phone, email, or video chat.
