- Hypothermia is the reduction of the body temperature due to exposure or submersion.
- Every year people die from hypothermia in Alaska.
- Dressing in several light layers allows you to adjust the amount of clothing you have on to accommodate both the weather and your level of exertion.
- Avoid overheating and chilling.
- Travel with others and keep a close watch for the early signs of hypothermia:
- slurred speech
- lethargy
- uncontrollable shivering
- loss of ability to focus on tasks.
Hypothermia should be treated quickly with direct warming.
