When we found Tony,he was a sorry sight.His clothes were dirty.There was blood all over his arm.Before we reached him we saw him fall.He lay a moment.Then he pulled himself to his feet,walked a few yards with difficulty through the woods and fell again.When we lifted him off the ground,he tried to break away and run,like a wild animal.After we got him out,we went back to find the gun that he had thrown down.His footprints showed that for two days he had circled in the forest,within 200 yards of the road.His senses were so weak by fear that he did not hear the cars going by or see the lights at night.He was very tired.We found him just in time.This man,like others before him,was full of fear when he knew he was lost.Whatever sense of direction that a man may have,it’s still largely a question of watching out.An experienced woodsman always keeps an eye on the things around him.He notes the shape of a mountain,the direction that water flows through the mountain,and everything along with him when he travels—how a tree leans across it and how a rock stands.He sees the way and the general flows of water.With these in mind,he may be turned around many times,but his way is seldom lost.There are exceptions,of course,and once in a while a man does get into some strange difficulty that puts him into the ―lost‖ column.A rainstorm may catch him without a compass to show him the direction.Darkness may find him in a very hard situation,where travel is dangerous without a light.When this happens,the normal first reaction is the fear of difficulty as a result of this poor woodsmanship.He may also worry about the trouble that he will cause his friends when he doesn’t show up.If he is short of experience,he may keep on the move in an effort to find the camp against all bad happenings.And the result is that he might walk in circles or in the wrong direction and in the end beat himself out physically and mentally—he will be found mad and crazy.[來(lái)源:學(xué)科網(wǎng)]
