Rating: ***
This article is good if you
ever find yourself stuck in the wilderness with no rescue imminent
In this article the author
tells the story of a woman named Rita Chretien as they got stuck on a snowy trail
on there way to a Nevada trade show it tells her story of how she survived for
49 days and with barely any survival skills or outdoor experience it tells us
how she did it with her determination and offers all sorts of facts about how
the human body works to give an explanation to how she survived that long an
example of this would be an explanation of how long the body can go without
water and how the body needs little food to actually function and how most
humans body’s store nutrients incase of a situation the article also tells us
about the 5 needs for survival which are attitude, shelter, water, fire/warmth,
food.
This article has taught me a
lot about how to handle a survival if I ever do find myself in one and has been
very informative on the facts of the human body that either I was a little
vague on or didn’t know at all around a good source of information.
