A lot of people think that being in the wilds actually risks a lot more that what can be gained. This is because the dangers of the untamed wilderness are far too great to go unnoticed. However, the wilderness doesn't have to get the better of the prepared hunter. After all, if you're going to go into a potentially dangerous scenario, you might as well maximize your chances for survival. Otherwise, you shouldn't even think about it.

The first thing that you have to do is to make sure that you cover all the bases. Make sure that you tell people about your plans to go hunting so that they'll know where to start looking if they feel something is wrong. You can also give them a timetable so that they can send out a search party if you've been gone too long. You can also bring a few attention flags so that they'll know what to start looking for to start tracking you down.

If you're just about ready to go out to hunt, you might want to bring a little extra food and a little extra navigational equipment. This is because you will have to make sure that you increase your chances of survival. This is also because you have to prepare emergency supplies to make give you a few extra days. However, you still have to be seen. That is why you also have to bring strobe lights and blank flags. Just remember that the greater the chance of you getting seen by rescuers, the greater the chance of getting out of tight spots.
