He was lost for just a day and he already thought he was going to die... And he says he's a avid hiker... smh

[–] • 4 pts

I had mild fears after the first 6 hours very lost in wilderness, and I am no avid hiker, just a thrill seeker.

I TOO WAS LOST for 9 hours...

...in federal land dense tall bushes and grasses and only deer paths that never went straight.

At some point before it got too dark, I decided to just only travel on downward slopes , ever lower and lower, no matter what and keep going until I encountered a road or bridge or telephone pole.

It sucked. I had no phone on me, no map, no GPS. I thought I was a know-iti-all... but when you cannot ever see because of underbrush and forest... its all no fun at all. So many things grow 7 feet tall or more. I did scratch myself trying to partly climb trees for a peek now and then, but all you see are other trees.

I think i do stupid stuff alone like that too often.

I also had other thrilling memories being risky lightly caving, being risky on old logging roads by vehicle, urban spelunking, and being risky in general while alone.

Did you take video of it for social media? That's the only true way of justifying your existence for living. Here take a 👍on me.

you should take a camera, no cell, and hike into center of one of these monsters :

Why? Are you an adrenaline junkie? You should fix your diet to balance your hormones

Or maybe you should fix your diet to be less of a pussy.

Wait is this a thing? I’m an adrenaline junky myself, just figured it was how I am, didn’t know diet had anything to do with it.

You should watch that guy Les Stroud, I think that's his name. He had a show years back that taught survivor techniques. Not sure if they are actually useful.

Was this guy retarded? Seriously? How stupid does a person have to be to get lost in this way?

[–] • 6 pts (edited )

I've been on that trail. He's full blown retarded. Like many such trails that are heavily used by normies it's a well beaten path with constant signs and cairns marking the way. It's basically a dirt road. A 5 year old couldn't get lost there. A 2 hr hike is typically 6 miles he's never going to be more than 3 miles from the parking lot.

The retards that live in LA are totally brain dead NPCs. I saw a group of people call for a rescue chopper in Griffith park. They were 500 yards from the parking lot.

Most social media influencers are full blown retard

They were 500 yards from the parking lot.

Did you hear that grumble Instagram and Facebook live followers?!?! Camera full fixated and close up to their face.

Yea I just started my car idiot. Why are you crouching in the bushes?

Nigga has a fucking gps and decides to text photos instead of lat/long, he's without a doubt retarded.

Edit:

More importantly, though, Compean didn’t realize his location settings were disabled on his phone

Even worse, he knew enough to disable the exfi location data on his pictures.

Probably an iphone user, using apple maps is how he got lost in the first place.

It's easy if you're inexperienced.

Oh ok.. saw his picture.

The same people that go neck-deep in the ocean for a dip with zero swimming ability, and have to get rescued by lifeguards from said beach.

Even a Webelo knows that you pack enough gear to be able to survive for a few days before getting lost in the woods.

A webelos would know to take a compass with them, get a map, and pre plan the trip before leaving, which was standard when I was a scout. You also notify parents and local authorities with a call back, and if it's missed, S&R is based off the hiking guide you gave them. The chances of scouts getting lost was zero, because of the amount of pre planning and research that went into doing stuff, instead of doing it the nigger way. Probably why scouts was shit canned, got forbid we help men out there to actually read a fucking map and not waste monumental time doing police S&R over bullshit

Indeed.

Also most cell phones have a compass. If he knows he has to go north or south based off the initial direction, he could have easily found his way. Knowing that the sun goes East to West, he could have used that with no compass. Or the direction of the moss, which is north, or the lean of the trees based off general wind direction. A combination of where the sun is with moss, means he now knows where the general direction of North and East are, giving him where West and South are. This is BASIC non compass based ways of finding your positions without a map or compass. Plus everyone knows you always mark your path just in case, with a carving, a mark, or something, just in case

Not for a 2hr hike. You barely even need to pack water.

It's an example of how OSINT can be useful.

Also, anyone who gets lost in Southern California is a moron.

The Washington Post probably won't tell you about 4chan's game of capture the flag, but they will explain an OSINT technique in this context. Given your disdain for the Washington Post, you might understand that they don't just pick stories and how to write them arbitrarily. You might ask yourself what the Bezos faction is really trying to communicate with this piece.

Heroic chinese man saves a person's life...

You're half way there.

"China finds some missing idiot in So Cal via overhead intelligence" for example.

You're almost there. It's clown world, don't forget. Read the news accordingly.
