Outdoor drifting must know common sense

There is a big difference in the aspects of drifting between adventure and general attractions, so it should be said that there are two aspects to be noted in the drift:

First of all, let's talk about the things that should be noted in the drifting of general attractions. Nowadays, the most common rafting in China is the drifting of main bamboo rafts and rubber rafts, and there are some special ones such as the sheepskin rafting in the Yellow River in Shaanxi and Gansu, and the Tianmu Creek in Zhejiang. Launched dragon boat rafting and more. As a tool for drifting, things to pay attention to are not the same. But one thing is the same. The so-called drifting is obviously inseparable from water. Therefore, your dress should be as simple and easy as possible, but it should not be too thin or light in color, or you may be very jealous if you lose water. Shoes are the best choice for sandals. Soaking in sports shoes for a short time can't be done. The skin on the feet is often immersed in swelling. There is something else you should be prepared for, with less valuable but afraid of water, such as advanced cameras. If you must bring it, it's better to prepare a plastic bag with better sealing beforehand. You must use it. However, many places of interest should have storage space for items. Other rafting should pay attention to wear a life jacket, which may be more clear than I do, although many people reflect that the sweat of the clothes is really unpleasant, but you will wear it without hesitation. Many places where water is drifting can be very cold, so don't be overwhelmed by her charms. Don't just go into the water. There are many things to be aware of when it comes to expeditionary drifting. First of all, you will see the Royal Society's "Survival Handbook." You must not only be a good helmsman, but you can move freely through the heavy vortex, and you must Learn how to survive in the wild, how to choose a campsite, and how to find food.

Prepared before drifting

Swim suits should be worn before drifting to prevent the clothes from being sprayed and the life jackets must be worn. Before drifting, visitors must decide whether it is feasible or not depending on their physical condition. Old and weak, sick and disabled should not try it lightly. It is best not to bring along valuables for visitors. The items you carry with you can be packed in plastic bags and tied on a safety rope.

Multi-banded clothing: drifting will inevitably "wet the body." It is hard to accept dry clothes after going ashore. Don't wear leather shoes for rafting, flat slippers, plastic sandals, and travel shoes. Bad weather, cold water, good weather, water, sun, it is necessary to pay attention to cold sun, too expensive clothing and shoes is best not for drifting.

The captain only brings drinking water, mobile phones, paging, documents, and cash... Don't bring anything afraid of water.

Parents need to know: children who are too young should not drift nor swim. The situation in the river in the mountains is complicated and there are rapids and rapids. It is dangerous for children who are not sensible to tamper with on board.

The type of drifting tool

There are different tools for different river sections. In general, rubber rafts are the most widely used, and they are the most common and commonly used.

Because rubber material flexibility is good, there are inflatable balloons can be soft and just normal reefs can not be, but generally do not have to worry about tourists, drifting process its own rudder is responsible, the main task of the rudder is to grasp the direction and balance, encountered Rapids rapids and reefs can be handled properly. oak

There are generally several pulp boards for tourists to operate on the pelt. When the river reaches a gentle level, visitors can use paddles to draw water under the guidance of a rudder.

Bamboo rafts (or bamboo rafts) are generally not suitable for use in rapids and rapids, and can easily be stuck or sink. However, they float in calm weather but have a full flavor. Visitors hold a bamboo basket while holding it deep and shallow while watching the riverbank landscape. Of course, this is no longer a drift in the strict sense.

Rafting notes
