Barb Hanus (or B.H. Anus, as I call her) decided to knock back our project presentation until after we break for spring... so I can friggen' go!
Things I am looking forward to:
- Going to bed at eight
- Gourmet boiled foods
- Pooping in a frozen toilet
- Having frozen facial hair
- Poles
Expedition, away!
ALSO: What to do after falling through the ice!
Step 1: Be pulled (from a distance) or roll away from the hole. Don't step up right away, as the ice surrounding the hole will be weakened. Be sure you are several feet from the hole.
Step 2: Retrace your footsteps. The only known "safe" area is the area which was previously traveled. Get to shore A.S.A.P!
Step 3: Warm up! Severe hypothermia is inevitable, unless treated immediately. Get out of your wet clothing, and set up camp or a shelter. Dry off and get into a sleeping bag, and if need be, share body warmth with a fellow expedition member.
