Testing the ability to survive unaided in the outdoors - whether mountains, jungles, deserts or sea - is becoming increasingly popular. This book prepares ordinary adventurers and outdoor enthusiasts for trips far from civilization, enabling them to safely handle situations in different world regions and equipping them with practical survival knowledge needed to make the most of their experience in the wilderness. Illustrated with first-rate colour photographs, and step-by-step diagrams, the manual includes vital elements such as navigation skills, preparation for a trip, physical and mental preparedness, surviving life-threatening environmental hazards and how to improvise if all else fails. Filled with concise lively text, it demystifies survival in unfamiliar territory and conditions. From choosing the right equipment, to re-learning the outdoor skills that were probably second-nature to our ancestors, this informative manual is an invaluable addition to the backpack of any outdoor enthusiast, trekker or adventure traveller.
