equipment According to the School Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Manual Booklet 1 of DepEd, “hazard
for outdoor is a dangerous phenomenon, condition, substance, or human activity that may cause loss of life, injury
recreational or other health impacts, property damage, social and economic disruption, loss of livelihoods and
activities. services, or environmental damage”.
Mishaps are avoidable. The most effective way to prevent them is to adequately prepare for the trip
that includes knowing the environmental hazard you may encounter during the outdoor recreational
activity.
Robert Ernst (2003) emphasizes that, “most of us know that when we are outdoors, exposure to the
mix of heat, humidity, and sun can lead to serious heatrelated illnesses. But a number of other
problems can occur from sunburns to insect bites and stings.” With these, he enumerates guidelines
when assessing environmental hazard, you need to look at the following factors:
1. Location and terrain
The terrain is defined as the specific physical features of an area of land. The location and the
terrain contribute to the hazardous conditions when staying and walking into the site. Below
are some environmental hazards that depend upon your location and terrain:
a. Uneven surfaces, wet grass, and mud
 b. Holes in the ground can cause trips or falls.
c. Rocky trails
d. Exposed ledges
e. Darkness
f. Poison ivy

2. Season/Climate
Keep an eye on the current and predicted weather conditions. Know the signs for approaching
storms or changing weather conditions. Some areas are susceptible to certain types of severe
weather. Weather hazards include:
• Lightning and thunderstorms,
• Flooding and flash flooding,
• Strong winds and tornadoes,
• Freezing rain and hail, and
• Being Overexpose to sun.
3. Equipment and Transportation Keep your equipment in good condition. Inspect them before
your trip. Do not wait until you are at the trail-head. Beyond the activity, the equipment and
driving/ transportation are also considered environmental hazards.
Equipment:
• Broken stove
• Boots not broken in
• Improper clothing
• Inoperative equipment

Driving/Transportation:
• Bad road conditions
• Darkness
• Unfamiliar road
• Difficult road (Class I-VI)
• Other erratic drivers
• Pedestrians/cyclists

Ten essential equipment for Mountaineering

According to mountaineers.org, “it is a great idea to work on a checklist that is tailored to the
nature of the outing when planning for your next mountaineering trip”. Here are ten essential
pieces of equipment that mountaineers should prepare and bring when climbing a mountain:
1. Navigation – Today’s mountaineer carries five essential tools while navigating to their
destination: map, altimeter, compass, GPS device, and personal locator beacon (“PLB”) or
other devices to contact emergency first responders.
2. Headlamp – In the outdoors, headlamps are the flashlight of choice, freeing hands for
anything from cooking to climbing. If the party plans to return before dark, each member
should carry a headlamp.
3. Sun-protection – This includes carrying and wearing sunglasses, sunprotective clothes, and
broad-spectrum sunscreen rated at least SPF 30.
4. First Aid – Carrying and knowing how to use a first-aid kit should not give you a false sense
of security. Avoid injuries or sickness is the best course of action to take in the first place.
5. Knife – These are useful for first-aid, food preparation, repairs, and climbing, therefore,
everyone in the group should carry one.
6. Fire – Most climbers carry a disposable butane lighter or two instead of matches. Either
must be reliable.
7. Shelter – Carrying some sort of emergency shelter from rain and wind, such as a plastic tube
tent or a jumbo plastic trash bag.
8. Extra Food – The food should require no cooking, be easily digestible, and store well for long
periods.
9. Extra water – Always carry at least one water bottle or hydration bag.
10. Extra clothes – It refers to additional layers that would be needed to survive long, inactive
hours of an unplanned camp.

Commonly used life-saving equipment in Aquatic Activities

According to www.shmgroup.com, “many disastrous accidents have been averted due to the
timely use of life-saving equipment by the sports enthusiasts as well as the accompanying
experts”.
The following are the commonly used life-saving equipment in water sports and should always
be checked for availability.
1. Lifejackets - These can be of help to the person wearing it from drowning. Thus, it is
important to always wear a life jacket throughout the water activity.
2. Safety helmets – They are used mostly for water sports involving a higher risk factor, like
water skiing and kayaking activities, but it is important to use them whenever required.
3. Safety harnesses – They should be tied tightly enough to allow free movement in the boat
or on deck, but not so loose that the person may fall overboard, leading to a lot of injuries
4. Lifebuoys – These are ring-like flotation devices that prevent people from drowning.
5. First aid kits - It is the first requirement for medical assistance in case of an emergency and
hence is a must-have safety measure on every boat.
6. Maps - It is important to navigate rightly and follow the basic safety rules while taking any
vessel out in the water, be it for rafting or boating.
7. Distress signals – These include light-emitting beacons and flares that are important to gain
the attention of passers-by for help during an emergency.
8. Radios – It will enable the person in need to get in touch with the control center and get
assistance in case of an emergency.
9. Weather Gauge - Carrying a weather gauge at all times helps one stay updated about the
climate and any potential weather change.
10. Personal locator - The beacon is an electronic transmitter that sends out a signal alerting
the rescuers of the location. People regularly use this device for crew saving in lifeboats and
shipping.

Essential Tips for the Outdoor Safety
In www.fs.fed.us, the most effective way to prevent mishaps is to adequately prepare for the trip.
Knowledge of the area, weather, terrain, limitations of your body, plus a little common sense can help
to ensure a safe and enjoyable trip.
The website introduces the following essential tips for outdoor activities:
1. Travel with companion.
You don't want to be by yourself in case of an emergency. Leave a copy of your itinerary with a
responsible person. Include such details as the make, year, and license plate of your car, the
equipment you're bringing, the weather you've anticipated, and when you plan to return. If
you'll be entering a remote area, your group should have a minimum of four people; this way,
if one is hurt, another can stay with the victim while two go for help. If you'll be going into an
area that is unfamiliar to you, take along someone who knows the area or at least speak with
those who do before you set out. If an area is closed, do not go there. Know ahead of time the
location of the nearest telephone or ranger station in case an emergency does occur on your
trip.
2. Be in good physical condition.
Set a comfortable pace as you hike. A group trip should be designed for the weakest member
of the group. If you have any medical conditions, discuss your plans with your health care
provider and get approval before departing. Make sure you have the skills you need for your
 camping or hiking adventure. You may need to know how to read a compass, erect a
temporary shelter, or give first aid. Practice your skills in advance. If your trip will be
strenuous, get into good physical condition before setting out. If you plan to climb or travel to
high altitudes, make plans for proper acclimatization to the altitude.
3. Think about your footing while traveling near cliffs.
Trees and bushes can't always be trusted to hold you. Stay on developed trails or dry, solid
rock areas with good footing.
4. Wear appropriate clothing for the trail conditions and season.
5. Check your equipment.
Keep your equipment in good working order. Inspect it before your trip. Do not wait until you
are at the trailhead. Be sure to pack emergency signaling devices.
6. Be weather wise.
Keep an eye on current and predicted weather conditions. In this area, weather can change
very quickly. Know the signs for approaching storms or changing weather conditions. Avoid bare ridge
tops, exposed places, lone trees, streams, and rocks during lightning storms. Find shelter in a densely
forested area at a lower elevation. Even in the summer, exposure to wind and rain can result in
hypothermia.
7. Learn basic first aid so you will know how to identify and treat injuries and illnesses.
Carry a first aid kit with you. Learn how to identify the symptoms of heat exhaustion, heat
stroke, hypothermia, and dehydration, and know how to treat them.
8. Make camp before dark.
Traveling after darkness has resulted in many accidents from falls, so travel only during
daylight. Set up camp well away from the edge of cliffs and learn the terrain during daylight. If you
have to leave camp after dark, stay in areas you have seen in daylight, go with a friend, and always use
a good flashlight.
9. Be alert for slippery areas and take your time to avoid tripping.
Low-hanging branches and variable terrains make running unsafe, and leaves can hide
slippery areas underneath.
10. Alcohol and cliffs don't mix. If you drink, stay away from the cliffs. Judgment, agility, and
balance are all reduced by alcohol consumption.
11. Think before you drink!
No matter how clean or pure stream water looks, it's likely to contain water-borne parasites
and microorganisms that can cause discomfort and sometimes serious illness. Pack your water in or
purify through chemical treatment.
