Safety Tips
Pond River, Reservoir, Creek and Pond......
These wild water systems appear to be calm on the surface
But there are huge security risks
What are the wild waters?
What are the dangers of wild waters?
01
Turbulent rocks dark current under the water
Even if there is no height drop, when the current hits the large rocks and piled stones in the river, the direction of the flow changes, and it is possible to form a powerful undercurrent or even a whirlpool.
02
Be wary of faults at the bottom of the river
The riverbed structure of most small rivers is uneven, and the river water is deep and shallow, so it is easy to accidentally step into the deep water area and drown accidents.
03
Swimming in cool water is prone to cramps
Water temperatures in the wild are hierarchical. In summer, the surface is warmer and some warmer, and the lower the temperature, the lower it gets. When the water temperature is too low and the muscles are stimulated by cold water, they are prone to tonic contractions, resulting in muscle spasms.
04
In case of heavy rain upstream, be careful of rising water downstream
Sometimes, even though the weather is fine downstream, heavy rain in the upper reaches of the river will cause the river to increase rapidly and become a torrent that rushes downstream.
In addition, in addition to the risks of the water body itself, there are many uncertainties in wild waters, which can easily lead to dangers:
The shore has been soaked in water for a long time, and it is very slippery or mossy, and it is easy to slip into the water when stepping on it;
Reservoirs, rivers, landscape lakes and other waters are soft and soft in silt, and it is difficult to break free once they fall into it;
The underwater environment is complex, and there may be aquatic plants such as aquatic plants, which are difficult to get out of once they are entangled;
The wild is sparsely populated, and it is difficult to get timely rescue in the event of an accident.
