What method should you use if you get lost on a scouting event?

• STOP
• Stay put – It is easier for rescuers to find a stationary person than one who is moving. Find a place which is not hazardous and stay there. Have some water and a snack if possible. Rest.
• Think – Consider what resources you have should the situation extend into overnight. Develop confidence by considering your situation and being prepared.
• Observe – Take note of your surroundings. Is there shelter from the cold or storms? Is it getting dark? Are there hazards in the area?
• Plan – Determine what you can to do to conserve energy and be as comfortable as possible. Don’t panic. Rely on your knowledge and observations.
