In recent years, outdoor adventures have been loved by many people. However, the reporter's investigation found that many participants lacked relevant professional knowledge and equipment. Some even met several friends on WeChat and started off with dry food, causing outdoor adventures. There are many accidents. In addition to these frequent accidents, it is necessary to ask, what are we lacking in outdoor adventures other than passion?
33 ALICE trekking through trapped mountains
On the morning of May 29th, the 33 donkeys walked across the 18-county stream in Fuzhou on foot. They did not expect a sudden rainstorm in the afternoon of the same day, and the stream surged. All 33 people were trapped in the valley.
In the evening, Fujian Mountaineering Association Mountain Rescue Team and Fuzhou Off-Road E-Class Club sent a total of 12 rescue vehicles and more than 20 people to the area for rescue. After a full night of search and rescue, more than 10 a.m. on the 30th, all trapped people were rescued.
The Shigemori River covers an area of ​​58.7 square kilometers and is surrounded by canyons, cliffs, mountains, and virgin forests. The valleys are deep, steep cliffs are steep, and the rivers are rushing. It is difficult to pass through, but due to its magnificent scenery, it enjoys a reputation among its ass. Each year attracts a large number of outdoor adventurers.
Every year, tourists and explorers are trapped and lost their lives. A staff member of the 18-fold Creek Scenic Area Management Office told the reporter that just in the days before the 33 ALICE members were trapped, 3 people lost their way when they were on the 18th Cross Creek and were rescued by rescue workers two days later.
Zheng Xiang, deputy director of Fuzhou City Public Security Bureau Nantong Police Station, introduced that the 18-fold Creek is steep and dangerous. In addition, there are no cell phone signals in its undeveloped areas. Every time a donkey is trapped, they often use dozens of people and consume a lot of money. The human and financial resources.
Outdoor sports development rapid protection awareness left behind
Frequent outdoor adventure accidents are not unique to the 18-fold stream in Fuzhou. Similar incidents have occurred in various parts of the country in recent years. The background is the rapidly growing Chinese outdoor sports market.
According to incomplete statistics from the China Mountaineering Association, the number of people directly involved in outdoor sports in China in 2014 exceeded 100 million. At the same time, due to the overall increase in the incidence of accidents, the death toll has also increased year by year. In 2014, for example, there were a total of 160 mountaineering and outdoor sports accidents in China. The total number of accidents was 689, resulting in 63 deaths and 7 missing.
The aquatic plant of the blue sky rescue team captain in Xiamen, Fujian Province, said that especially during the peak season of the fall and winter season, they will have outdoor adventure rescue operations almost every week.
Wang Gang, leader of the Xiamen Dawn rescue team, said that many donkeys are just enthusiasts who have just set foot in the open air. Their professional knowledge and personal fitness are all lacking. Some people want to find challenging areas, but this challenge actually exceeds their ability.
Aquatics said that there are many uncertainties in outdoor sports, especially in the mountains. On foot adventures, participants are required to have sufficient field knowledge and experience in field survival, medical first aid, physical fitness, familiarity with terrain, and adequate equipment, supplies, and detailed plans.
However, many participants do not know enough about risk. According to a survey conducted by Digital 100 Market Research Corporation, 68% of respondents thought to bring a camera when they are ready for outdoor trips, and they think that less than 30% of them have more professional equipment and clothing.
Some outdoor trekking, old and young together, some wearing jeans, some wearing skirts and high heels. Shui Cao said that some of the scenes when they were helping ALICE made her feel bizarre.
In addition, professional rescue workers such as Mizutani and Wang Gang also stated that at present many outdoor clubs are organized in a more casual manner. There are too many outdoor clubs, and entry barriers are relatively low. Some even build a QQ group to organize outdoor activities.
Preventing Risks: The Premise of Nothing to Relax
People in the industry believe that ensuring safety is a prerequisite for outdoor adventures. Especially with the advent of summer, there are more uncertainties such as storm floods, and it is even more necessary to raise safety awareness.
Aquatics said that clubs or organizations that often play outdoors must have regular knowledge of field survival, medical emergencies, and other training. In addition, before departure, it is necessary to make assessments such as the elevation of the destination, the topography, and the expected time, and the recharge of the destination should be more than expected.
Wang Gang said that before the outdoor adventure, there must be pre-trip meetings to test everyone's physical condition and understanding of outdoor knowledge. The team leader must be aware of the situation of each team member and the assignment of tasks should be targeted. In addition, personal equipment should be fully prepared, at least taking into account the rain, replenishment, lighting, and warmth requirements in the wild. In addition, the leader is the core of the team and its overall quality must be better.
Taking three or five people taking a dozen or so individuals for example, the team leader must be familiar with the terrain, and one or two security officers must be provided in the middle of the team. Aquatics said that adequate professional team configuration, coupled with adequate equipment and prior evaluation, will effectively reduce the probability of accidental outdoor adventures.
A number of senior donkeys said that developed countries such as Europe and the United States have adopted a reporting system for dangerous adventure routes. They suggested that relevant associations or clubs jointly develop software that can be used for reporting purposes, and that they can reduce the risk of outdoor adventures and facilitate the implementation of emergency rescues by filing applications in advance.
