Roots are starchiest between autumn and spring. All roots should be thoroughly cooked. Scrub in clean water, boil until soft, then roast on hot stones in embers. To cook more rapidly, cut into cubes. Use a sharpened stick to test if they are done.

Using the floats and weights in hunting is very important. A small floating object attached to the line, visible from the bank, will show you when you have a bit. Small weights between float and hook stop the line trailing along the water or too near the surface, while leaving the hook itself in movement.

Siting the signals: Take account of the terrain. Choose high points for light signals. Erect an unusual silhouette or a ridge to attract attention. Planes fly over hilly territory from the lower to the higher ridges, so slopes behind ridges may be hidden as the plan approaches. Signals near tops of ridges should be seen from any direction.

Some of the cold climate hazards are Hypothermia. Loss of temperature due to exposure, brought on by exhaustion, inadequate clothing or shelter, lack of food, lack of knowledge and preperation. Wet clothing or immersion in cold water will aggravate it, as will anxiety, stress and injuries that immobilise.

SAS 115 - Reading Weather & Deciding to Move
To be caught in bad weather could prove fatal. Before setting out, take note of the weather. Observe wind and pressure changes. Keep a record of the weather, the conditions which precede it, and what they develop into. Animals are sensitive to atmospheric pressure and are good for short-term weather predictions. Insect-eating birds feed higher in good weather, lower when a storm is approaching. ...

When in water, the survivor is more likely to be exposed to water - borne diseases, or those carried by insects and animals. Tropical diseases are less familiar and will therefore be dealt with here in more detail. Where drugs are not available, treatment is largely a matter of dealing with symptoms and making patient comfortable.

SAS 095 - Camp Tools & Beds
Beds: Avoid lying on cold, damp ground. In the tropics raise the bed to provide a current of air. In cold climates, Keep a fire going through the night and build a screen to reflect heat back on your sleeping area. On dry ground, stones heated in the fire and then buried under a thin layer of soil beneath the bedding will keep you warm.

By day smoke is good locator. Have a supply of smoke-producing material ready to put on your fires. Smoke not only helps rescue aircraft find you, it also shows surface wind direction. Make sure smoke is downwind of landing site and of any panel codes you have laid so it does not obscure them from above.
