How do you prioritise in a survival situation? If you find yourself in an emergency situation in the great outdoors, if you are lost or stranded or become involved in a situation which ultimately becomes a survival situation, what do you do? How do you break things down, prioritise, keeping yourself and others alive?
Well, it’s probably fairly obvious that you deal with medical emergencies first. Someone will die of a blocked airway or profuse bleeding more quickly than exposure. But once you have administered first aid, what’s next? Is the priority always the same? Or does it vary depending on geography, terrain or other factors? http://paulkirtley.co.uk/
