- Prepare a lean-to, wind break, or snow cave for protection from the wind. <br /> - Build a fire for heat and to attract attention. Place rocks around the fire to absorb and reflect <br /> heat. <br /> - Do not eat snow. It will lower your body temperature. Melt it first. <br /> If stranded in a car or truck: <br /> • Stay in the vehicle! <br /> • Run the motor about ten minutes each hour. Open the windows a little for <br /> fresh air to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning. Make sure the exhaust pipe is not blocked. <br /> • Make yourself visible to rescuers. <br /> - Turn on the dome light at night when running the engine. <br /> - Tie a colored cloth to your antenna or door. <br /> - Raise the hood after the snow stops falling. <br /> • Exercise to keep blood circulating and to keep warm. <br />
