search and rescue week 7

Yesterday night, us new members of SAR got a demo on how to use ropes and tapes.  I learned how to tie  a simple sling, the wrap two pull, and a water mark knot. We also did some compass work.

Headlamps

 These are some types of headlamps that I have looked at. I found all the info at MEC. I am looking for bright headlamps for when I am out in the bush I can see more than a few meters.
