Obtaining Water

Finding a clean drinkable source of water is one of the most important things you need to do when forced to survive outdoors. Keep in mind that water is the most important element a human body needs to survive so finding a safe source of water fast is a must in a survival situation.

When surviving outdoors streams, lakes, and rivers are the most common source of survival water supply. There are many ways to know where you can find them in the wilderness. Always look out for animal or wildlife tracks as animals always know where the water is. Remember that lush green vegetation is also a sign of a nearby water source. Another thing to look out for is bird flight paths in the morning and evening as they always point to a water source.

Always use your ears when you are moving or resting and listen for possible sounds of rivers and streams as they can be heard in the quiet woods from great distances. You may also want to look in valleys or other low-lying areas as water always flows downhill.

Water in Muddy Areas

Ground water may also be available in muddy areas. You can get clean potable water by digging a foot deep hole with a 1 foot diameter and wait for the water to surface. Use some cloth in straining the ground water to produce a clean potable water source. Keep in mind that found water must be purified before drinking to avoid the risk of drinking contaminated water.

Rainwater

Most Rain water in rural areas or wilderness is clean and safe. They are usually potable and can be consumed without the fear if getting disease or illnesses. It is wise to use any and all kinds of containers when it rains so you can collect a sufficient amount of clean potable water for your survival water storage.

There are many ways to gather rain water in the wilderness, using a poncho or a plastic sheet and a container tie the sheet or poncho on a slant with slight sag to collect and drain the rain water. If you can’t find any containers you can use the poncho or plastic sheet as a makeshift water bag by tying it in all four corners and giving it more sag. Don’t be alarmed if the rain water tastes different because it doesn’t have minerals that are commonly found in streams or ground water but it is still safe and potable. Watch this video tutorial on how to collect and filter water from rain:

Heavy Dew and Vegetation

Another source of potable water is heavy dew. You can collect it by tying an absorbent cloth on your shins and walking through some high grass early in the morning. You can also get water supply from vegetation, bamboo, cacti, coconuts, fruits, and palm trees as they are also good sources of liquid sustenance. Green bamboo trees are the most common vegetation used in obtaining water outdoors. You can use them by bending the top part of a green bamboo tree at least a foot off the ground and tying it off. You then cut off the tip and put a container underneath and leave it overnight. This will give you a sufficient amount of clear and drinkable water in the morning.
