' MIDWAY MIDWAY MIDWAY MIDWAY MIDWAY A Winter Survival Hike Held at Long Sault Winter survival was the topic of a hike held Sunday, Sunday, January 27, at the Long Sault Conservation Area. Here, Michelle Ranter, a CLOCA naturalist, shows the group some of the tricks to emergency survival in winter. Winter survival depends on the basics of food, clothing, clothing, and shelter, hikers were told on Sunday during a trek through the Long Sault Conservation Area. Michelle Kanter, a naturalist with the Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authority, explained that the best apparel for outdoor survival consists of clothes worn in layers. "Having one thick coat is not as good as wearing a few sweaters," explained the naturalist at the beginning of the four kilometer winter walk. Clothing should also be made of wool, the naturalist added. The topics covered during during the hike also included sources of food and ways of finding shelter. Walkers learned, for example, that staghorn sumachs have small red berries which are bitter but edible. Needles of the red pine may be boiled as a tea and bir- chbark makes an ideal con tainer for melting snow. The inner bark of the birch tree can be cut into strips and eaten like spaghetti. Anyone trapped outdoors during the winter is warned against using snow as a source of liquid. Animals instinctively avoid eating snow because it lowers the body temperature too drastically. drastically. Snow should be melted over a fire if it is to be used for drinking water. On the subject of finding shelter, hikers learned a number of useful hints. Heating a large rock for three hours will yield about nine hours of warmth during during the night. Survivors are advised to build a fire near the rock and then build a lean-too beside it in order to utilize heat stored by the stone. Cedar woods are an excellent excellent place to find shelter in winter and the best refuge is not at the base of a valley but halfway up a hill. Those who spend time outdoors should always carry waterproof matches or at least a piece of flint for starting fires. Milkweed pods work as an ideal fire- starter. Michelle Kanter also warned hikers about danger from hypothermia. When the body temperature. of 37 degrees Celsius goes below 32 degrees, it can cause death. Early signs of hypothermia include intense intense shivering and staggering. staggering. The condition may be caused by excessive heat loss due to prespiration, wind chill or simply sitting in snow. Cases of frostbite should be treated by applying body heat to the area damaged by frost or by applying lukewarm water. Frostbite should not be treated by massage or by rubbing the affected area with snow. The group was also told that one of the keys to survival survival is to avoid panic. "What- . ever you do, don't panic because because that's one of the worst enemies, said Michelle Kanter. PEACOCK LUMBER LTD. Building supplies. Our specialty is lumber and lumber products.
