Here are some basic tips and recommendations how to best handle a survival situation in cold weather:
#1:when building a debris hut or any other hut build a bed inside 12 inches of the ground.
#2:when building a fire make sure you build a reflector behind it to push the fire back at you.
#3:most of your body heat comes from your head so keep it warm.
#4:try not to sweat when it drys you will get cold chills.
#5:try to ration your food.
#6:dont wear cotton shirts when they get wet they never dry causing you to freeze.
#8:instead heat the cotton to form a great tinder for fire.
#9:melt snow to form water.
#10:when no snow is present dig a hole about 5 feet away from a stream the water will filter over night making drinkable water.
