Signalling In The Jungle

The easiest way to deal with getting lost on a jungle tour is never to get lost in the first place. When embarking on jungle experiences, take a few things that will help people find you if you end up someplace unexpected:

* Bring a chemical light stick
* Bring a whistle
* Bring a flashlight with extra batteries.
* You can also buy small strobe lights that run on a single D battery. Even in the jungle, the powerful strobe can be seen for miles from the air.
* Another neat trick is to tie a discarded CD disk to your back pack. The mirror-like surface can catch even the scant light in the jungle and make it easier for others to see you.
