Negotiating territory at night can be dangerous, but may be necessary. Because it is difficult to see clearly you are easily disorientated. It is always darker among trees, so keep to open country if you can. When looking at an object at night, look at one side rather than directly at it.

Escaping through fire: Sometimes the best escape route may be to run through the flames. This is impossible if they are very intense and the area covered by thefire is great. In a large clearing or on heath land, however, it may be possible to run through less dense fire to refuge on the already burned-out land.
