Hot Tent Camping Guide--Precautions for Site Selection of Hot Tent Camping - Pomoly Xian - 04-20-2022
◆Precautions for camping site selection:
1. Near the water: Camping and rest are inseparable from water. Proximity is the first element of choosing a camp. Therefore, when choosing a camp, you should choose to be close to streams, lakes, and rivers in order to get water. However, the camp cannot be set up on the river beach. There are power plants upstream of some rivers. During the water storage period, the river beach is wide and the water flow is small. Once the water is released, the river beach will be full, including some streams, which are usually small. In the event of floods or flash floods, we must pay attention to preventing such problems, especially in the rainy season and areas prone to flash floods.
2. Leeward: When camping in the wild, you must consider the leeward problem, especially in some valleys and river beaches, you should choose a leeward place to camp. Also pay attention to the orientation of the tent door not to face the wind. Leeward also considers fire safety and convenience.
3. Far cliffs: When camping, the camp cannot be set up under the cliff, it is very dangerous. Once the strong wind blows on the mountain, it is possible to drop stones and other objects, causing casualties.
4. Near the village: If the camp is close to the village, you can ask the villagers for help if there is any emergency. It is even more important when there is no firewood, vegetables, food, etc. Close to the village is also a shortcut, that is, close to the road, which is convenient for the movement and transfer of the team.
5. Shade: If it is a camp that needs to live for more than two days, you should choose a shady place to camp in good weather, such as under a big tree and on the north side of the mountain, it is best to face the sun, not the sun sun. This way, if you rest during the day, it won't be too stuffy in the tent.
6. Lightning protection: In the rainy season or in areas with many thunder and lightning, the camp must not be set on high ground, under tall trees or on relatively isolated flat ground, as it is easy to cause lightning strikes
◆Summarize：
1.Geographical location: Try not to leave the town too far, or close to the village for camping in the wild, so that in the event of an accident, you can get help quickly, there will be roads where there are people, traffic is more convenient, and escape is easier. And the supply of living materials is also more convenient.
2. Stay away from the cliff: Camping is not optional at the foot of the cliff, in order to prevent stones or other objects from falling from the sky and accidents.
3. Lighting: According to the season and climate, if it is in the summer or the season with high temperature, choose a shaded place to avoid the temperature in the tent during the day being too high and unable to rest. If the climate is cold, choose a sunny place for easy heating.
4. Wind direction: The tent should not be in the wind direction. Try to choose the place where it is in the wind. In the case of strong wind, the tent will be overturned.
