Here are some guidelines which should be observed for your own safety.\r\nMountain Register\r\n*Always take time to complete the mountain register correctly and in detail.\r\n*It is very often the only information the rescue team has to go on if you have an accident or get lost.  Your life may depend on this information.\r\n*The register is kept at the trail head at FAR and WIDE.\r\nRemember to:\r\n*Avoid an unnecessary search by reporting your return.\r\n*Stick to your planned route\r\n*Tell a close friend or family member when you expect to arrive back home\r\nSecurity:\r\nYou should not meet anyone on your hike on the trail as it is a National Park and entry is strictly prohibited without a permit.  However, never leave any equipment unattended and place belongings inside your tent at night.  Please report any loiterers.\r\nEquipment:\r\n*Always carry a tent that is designed for mountainous conditions especially high winds.\r\n*Temperatures at night are often below zero, even in October.  A good sleeping bag is therefore very\r\nimportant, even in summer.\r\n*Take extra food as it may save your life if the weather turns bad and you have to stay longer than intended.\r\n*Sturdy, comfortable and waterproof hiking boots are essential.  Running shoes offer no protection against rough ground or wet conditions.\r\n*Take enough spare warm clothing, including water- and windproof jacket and over-trousers.  A jersey is useless in cold, windy conditions unless worn under a jacket.\r\n*Remember it can rain in any month of the year in Nyanga and snow has been recorded on Mt Nyangani.\r\n*It is essential to carry the trail map and knowing how to use it is vital.  Although the Turaco Trail is clearly marked on the map, not all game trails and traditional footpaths are.\r\n*Always carry a whistle to use for signalling emergencies.\r\n\r\nWhistle signals:\r\nHelp:  Series of six long blasts in quick succession with one minute intervals between each series.\r\nReply to help call:  Series of three long blasts in quick succession with one minute intervals between series.\r\nRecall searchers:  Many short blasts in quick succession continuously.\r\n\r\n*When walking in a group never split your group.  STAY TOGETHER.  WALK AT THE PACE OF THE SLOWEST MEMBER OF THE TEAM.\r\n*Drink water often... do not wait until you are thirsty as this means you are already dehydrated.  All water along the trail is safe to\r\ndrink\r\n*Torch with spare batteries and dry matches or a lighter are essential.  Keep them in a waterproof container.\r\n*A comfortable rucsac to carry all your equipment.  Put all your essential items in plastic bags.  As additional insurance a waterproof pack cover is suggested.\r\n*Carry a trowel to bury your faeces.  Don't bury your rubbish, please carry it out (the pack it in, pack it out principle).\r\n*Remember you must be self-reliant - there is no-one up there to help you\t\t\t\t\t\t  <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel End -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel Start -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel wpsm_panel-default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel-heading\" role=\"tab\" >\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  <h4 class=\"wpsm_panel-title\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a  class=\"collapsed\"  data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-parent=\"#wpsm_accordion_1003 \" href=\"#ac_1003_collapse2\"  >\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"ac_open_cl_icon fa fa-minus\"><\/span>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"ac_title_class\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span style=\"margin-right:6px;\" class=\"fa fa-compass\"><\/span>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPlanning\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  <\/h4>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"ac_1003_collapse2\" class=\"wpsm_panel-collapse collapse in\"  >\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  <div class=\"wpsm_panel-body\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t*Plan your route carefully and obtain a weather forecast before setting out on your hike.  Cirrus clouds (high wispy clouds) are an\r\nindicator of bad weather coming within 48 hours.\r\n*Plan your hike with the weakest member of your party in mind.\r\n*Remember to ensure you reach your camp site with enough daylight hours left to set up your camp and cook before nightfall.  There\r\nare considerably less daylight hours in the winter months than in summer.\r\n*Ensure that all participants take any medication they require with them.\t\t\t\t\t\t  <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel End -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<!-- Inner panel Start -->\r\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel wpsm_panel-default\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wpsm_panel-heading\" role=\"tab\" >\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  <h4 class=\"wpsm_panel-title\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a  class=\"collapsed\"  data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-parent=\"#wpsm_accordion_1003 \" href=\"#ac_1003_collapse3\"  >\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"ac_open_cl_icon fa fa-minus\"><\/span>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"ac_title_class\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span style=\"margin-right:6px;\" class=\"fa fa-compass\"><\/span>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tGeneral\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  <\/h4>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"ac_1003_collapse3\" class=\"wpsm_panel-collapse collapse in\"  >\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t  <div class=\"wpsm_panel-body\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t*Remember to tell someone who knows you where you are going.

Always keep together and ensure no-one falls behind.\r\n*Mist:  Misty conditions are frequent along the extent of the Turaco Trail.  Seek shelter and do not move until the mist has cleared\r\nenough to see the trail.  STAY ON THE TRAIL AT ALL TIMES.  Do not take short cuts and stay together.\r\n*Rain:  Try to seek shelter before it rains; a combination of wet, cold and windy conditions can be fatal.\r\n*River crossing:  Extreme caution should be exercised when crossing rivers in flood.  If you are in doubt as to your safety do not\r\nattempt to cross.  In any case always unclip you rucsac waist strap in case you have to slip out of it.  Use a river crossing\r\ntechnique.\r\n*Lightning: Avoid prominent positions, isolated trees or rocky outcrops.

Make the casualty safe and comfortable.  If the injury\r\nappears to in any way related to the spinal column, avoid moving the patient.\r\n*Extremes of weather:  Exhaustion and exposure to cold, wet and windy weather can lead to hypothermia and eventual death.  Symptoms include uncontrolled shivering, poor muscle control and a careless manner.  Seek protection from wind, rain and cold.  Put on dry clothes, take warm drinks but no alcohol and obtain warmth by body contact with another person.  Socks can be used as gloves in cold weather.  A ten, wind- and waterproof clothing used in good time will prevent a potential problem.  Remember that exposure related problems can occur even in summer.\r\nIt is recommended that at least one member of your party is conversant with the accepted first aid treatment of hyperthermia and dehydration.\r\n*Snake bite: is unlikely but can be serious.\r\nIf you have to assist a snake bite victim:\r\na) Keep the patient calm and relaxed - he or she is in no immediate danger.\r\nb) Avoid any movement by the patient s this quickens the spread of the venom.  If necessary carry the patient.\r\nc) Do not apply a tourniquet.  Seek medical assistance as soon as possible.\r\nd) The rinkals is capable of spitting, in which case the eye must be rinsed immediately with water or any suitable fluid.\r\n*Groups: it is recommended that your group consists of four to eight people and a maximum of twelve people.  A minimum of four people is recommended so that one person can stay with an injured person and two can go to find help.\r\nRaising the alarm:\r\n\r\n*FAR and WIDE Zimbabwe Camp: Tel 0772 469 229\r\nOffice:  Tel (029) 3011\/2\r\n*Messages should be written with details of the nature of the problem, the names of the party concerned, the number of person involved, the exact location of the party and the altitude.  This prevents the message from being misunderstood or altered while being relayed.
