You're stuck in the middle of nowhere and that 15 items from the wreck. How would you rank them?? ? You and some friends went on a small plane across the Juneau Icefield (you're part of a group of advanced search). Suddenly, you develop engine problems, forcing the plane to make a forced landing on Taku Glacier. Fortunately everyone survived, including the pilot, who suffered a broken leg. In addition, your device has been completely destroyed. It is 11:30 on May 30 The glacier is 2.5 miles wide and is surrounded by mountains covered with trees. 50 feet deep crevasses on the glacier are hidden by snow and it is dangerous to travel. The weather was rainy and foggy with occasional snow storms. Tempuratures are close to zero during the day and drop below freezing at night. Your radio is broken, but you have 15 items of wreck
A. A type Artic sleeping bag per person
B. A flashlight that operates four battery
C. A magnetic compass
D. A 20 'x 20' piece of heavy canvas
E. 13 wooden matches in the metal screw cap, waterproof container
F. Plane inntertube 14 "wheels (punctured)
G. Hand ax
H. A gallon of maple syrup
I. A fifth Barcardi rum (151 proof)
J. Three pairs of snowshoes
K. A book entitled Northern Star Navigation
L. A large bottle of tablets for purifying water
Mr A clock winding
N. 250 feet 1 / 4 rope braidenylon ", £ 50 test
W Security shaver kit, mirror
You must arrange these elements in order of importance for the survival of the team (# 1 most important 15 At least important). Keep in mind that it's still light and travel is not very safe.
OOH, a true story "stranded" on the issue, worthy of a thought!
One detail missing, I notice right away is how they were dressed in combat. This set aside (and sometimes reasons added)
O.. for the mirror more than anything, the signal of any rescue operation, which may come almost immediately before the survival of other techniques are needed.
A. more heat is a key factor may be taken when attempting to make the wood.
N. not much strength, but if used properly, can help them through the cracks
D. as a sled for the pilot of the wind, and as a possible trap (baited snow covers the hole w / syrup.
H, as energy source
G
F - to make smoke signals
I get a quick start
J.
B
I feel the rest of the goals I have forgotten, but some thoughts
Compass, Nav Star. seem unnecessary. An OT will not work there.
