Angel~\nThe first thing that you should do is research where you are going. Know the terrain and how long you will be hiking. Is is mainly flat? Sandy, beach walking? Up and down hill walking on uneven terrain?  Lots of big rocks or boulders to walk over? I found plenty of websites for Andros Islands, just type it into a yahoo or google search engine.\nHow many miles per day and how many days? Are you camping too?  \nThe best thing you can have on you while hiking are comfortable & supportive shoes or boots.  If you're hiking on uneven terrain where you are steping on rocks or boulders and walking up hill and then back down, boots are probably better than shoes because they keep your ankles from twisting and there is a smaller chance of slipping, and you'll want boots if you are carrying a heavy backpack. You really have to go to a sporting goods store or outdoor clothing outfitter like REI, Adventure 16, Sports Authority, Oshman's, etc... and try the ones on that you like the best. You want to pay attention to comfort and the weight. You will not realize how heavy things are until you're walking long distances.\nI have Salomon hiking shoes, REI trekking boots that I only wear in really rouch terrain\nSecondly, only carry what you'll need. If you're just doing a day hike without camping you won't need much. Hydration packs, like Camelbaks are great because you carry water and the basic essentials in one pack. Or you can use a regular daypack with side pockets to carry 1 or 2 water bottles. You want to stay hydrated while hiking, it is very important for your safety and enjoyment to stay hydrated with water or sports drinks.\nIf you're just hiking for the day you do not need much. Water, hat or bandana to cover your neck or head, sunglasses, snack foods like energy bars or fruit are good, trail mixes are good too. Hiking makes you hungry so make sure you eat before, during, and after the hike. water, water, water too.\nSunscreen in a small container--> skin cancer is silent killer. doesn't matter how dark-skinned or tan you are.\nDo-take out what you bring in to any nature area. \nDon't leave any wrappers or trash\nDon't ever feed animals and respect their natural surroundings. Feeding animals causes them to become less affraid of people and when that happens they can come to too close to people and their lives become compromised...a whole seperate email for that subject.\nDo-Ask your friends what gear they like to use and what they don't like\nDon't-break-in shoes or boots on a long hike.\nMoleskin is a must-drugstores carry it. Use it to cover areas of feet where blisters or hotspots occur.\nIf you have to pee and you probably will- go more than 200 feet away from any water source. It's bad for water quality If you have to poop-dig a hole at least 6 inches deep, 200 feet away from water, and cover it up the best you can.\n\nI could keep going here. Feel free to write me back with further questions. If you can tell me what type of hiking you're doing I may be better able to answer questions.\nHiking is one of my passions in life, it is so rewarding and enjoyable. Have a great time and take pictures always! \nHere are some websites for you to check out.\nLet me know how it goes.\n\nCheers~Erin (California,usa)

These are the typical precautions you should take before heading out on an outdoor excursion:\n\n1.Know where you are going and get a map of the area\n2.Know the weather and be prepared for it\n3.Make a trip plan and leave a copy of it with someone who can be trusted\n4.Bring the ten essentials plus any overnight/multiday gear you may need\n\nTen Essentials:\n1. Map/Compass\n2. Flashlight / Headlamp (with spare batteries/bulb)\n3. Extra Water \n4. Extra Clothes (Rain Gear)\n5. Extra Food \n6. First-Aid Kit\n7. Pocket Knife or Multi Purpose Tool\n8.

It is always better to travel with a group of 4 or more people so that if one person becomes injured someone can stay with them while allowing at least two people to go for help.

How will you keep warm?\nIt will be lonely without other people, including women.\nYou need to work on modular housing for atmospheric-interior pressure differentials.\nYou need to know where the water is located and how to get a handle on it.\nYou need energy source(s).\nYou need entirely new clothing and suit for outdoors.\nYou need a food supply and a plan for replenishment.\nWhat is most valuable or needed will not be known for sure until people gain experience by living there.\nLots of people will also need a Doctor/Surgeon.\nYou will need to visit Finland first.\nYou will need to know sub-surface temperatures, have a piping engineer, a construction engineer (specialized).\nShould you live underground? How far? What about meteorites?\nHow best to make use of existing terrain? Needs a very old geologist with lots of experience everywhere.\nWhat about people who become criminals or go nuts? You need to be able to send them back to earth...the alternatives are not pretty.\nYou need lots of energy-efficient bio-friendly lighting, especially to avoid depression.\nSame for plants -- which ones? Some colorful veggies and flowers, for sure.\nSo you will also need gardeners, horticulturist.\nYou will need excavating equipment that operates in this environment.\nWhat kind of transportation is best for Mars??????\n\nJust a start, but if you do not think of these things first, you will have trapped yourself in a place worse than Earth, though that may be hard to imagine until you consider the matter.\n\nShould weapons be allowed or banned?\nHow will the community be governed?\nDemocracy would apply to some things, in other cases the person who knows must be dictator, lest unforgiving mistakes result.\n\nMany things we take for granted here will need constant monitoring. More recycling necessary, less garbage.\n\nWhat about long distance transport, need aircraft adapted to Martian atmospheric conditions.\n\nThis all has to grow for many, many years before it will approach self-sustaining. Meanwhile, without planet Earth to call on for help...\n\nVisit Biosphere and Antarctica before you decide

Everyone so far has excellent advice, every one works.  Try them all.  One extra thing I have found that helps me is deep breathing.   Science has shown there is 2% less oxygen in the air as there was 50 years ago.  So bodies slow down for survival.  Just type in "breathing exercises" in your browser text box and hit "GO".  It takes a while,  don't do it too violently or you will hyperventilate.    Good Luck with all the help.

First things first, you have to know your enemy. Zombies come in two flavors: fast and slow. Fast are definitely cool, but you'll need more than a baseball bat and a pair of running sneakers to survive that zombie attack. Slow zombies - well why the heck would anyone die from a slow zombie? If you can't get away from a slow zombie, you earned dismemberment. \n\nLet's suppose that you made it through the first 10 minutes of the zombie-fest, and while most of your town are looking for live flesh to feast on, you're wondering how to hot-wire a car and get out of town. You need a plan of action... \n\nPreparation \n\nI'm assuming the reader isn't currently experiencing a zombie outbreak. If you are, skip down to the next section. \n\nPreparing now for zombiedom is a good idea. Remember what the TV preacher said, "When hell is full, the dead will walk the earth." So it's bound to happen sooner or later. Since it would look wierd if you started bricking up your windows and stockpiling rifles, you have to be smart about this. \n\nFirst, get to know the guy in town who bought a pallet of Spam to survive Y2K. He probably still has a ton of that stuff around, and knows all the good hiding places. \n\nNext, scout out all the big box retailers that carry ammo and food. Not too many eh? Tough luck, blue-stater. Someplace like WalMart is ideal, especially with the Garden Center for seed and stuff for longterm survival. A big bonus would be a nearby Home Depot or some such place so you can get plenty of lumber and quick-mix concrete for fortification. \n\nWhile you're preparing, always keep in mind locations where people congregate - you're likely to find lots of zombies there when things turn ugly. Highways, malls, and schools are especially bad. You also might want to mention to your friends and family in passing how well your hiding place could be defended, etc. That way, when the zombies come, they'll remember you said that and come help you. I don't recommend telling them you're preparing for a zombie invasion. \n\nFirst, the Fun Stuff \n\nAfter your initial panic, it's important to remember that a significant component of your surivival is the demise of the ghouls trying to get your tasty brains. Despite some reports to the contrary, the only way to permanently un-animate a zombie is to destroy its brain. This isn't rocket science (although that would be a cool way to do it). A gunshot to the head is the most direct way to disable a zombie, but not the only way. Decapitation also works, although the head will probably still function so don't let it bite you. If you survive long enough, and society collapses along with any hope of rescue, you'll need to develop some means of skull penetration that doesn't involve guns - a professional bowhunting setup works if you can get it. You might be squeamish at first, taking out your neighbors; with time this will pass, you might even adopt a gleeful hangman's sense of humor in your executions.\n\nRun or Hide \n\nThis is a no-brainer. You gotta hole up somewhere eventually, but pick carefully. Let's say that the outbreak is localized to your city, but you know that the neighboring town is zombie-free. Flee to the neighboring town. I know this sounds obvious, but don't sit around waiting for grandma to bite you. Get to the safe town, find a gun store, and join the Minuteman Militia. \n\nBut that isn't much fun, so let's think about what you'd do if the whole country is overrun. Since you already did your prep work, make a bee line for the WalMart you picked out earlier. Hot Tip: Pick a new WalMart if you can. Zombies tend try to do the things they were doing when they were alive, so they're gonna head to the mall, or WalMart, or school... you get the idea. And since we're on the subject, malls are a bad place to hole up in. Too many entrances, and not enough goodies for long term survival.

bush bash with a machete is my way ... cut out the big vines or whatever will get in the ways .... more often than not you can find animal trails, they often give a pretty good route.\n\nOther than that stick to fire trails or even pre-made tracks.

Define Survive.\n\nIf you are a real down to earth person, then the answer is simply that we needs the resources provided from those activites to live for a prolonged period, say 5 mins.\n\n\nWithout air, your brain will begin to die within minutes.   Oxygen is absolutely required by our cells to operate.
