regarding first aid

-get 2 a safe area “off cliff face”, “away from snake maybe” 😛

-call for help

-stay as calm as possible and move as little as possible you want to keep your pulse low

-place a piece of gauze on the bite first this can help in identifying the snake.

-rap the limb in a constrictive bandage “as tight as you would for a sprain” and also start at the end of the limb working up.

-keep the area below your heart

key if you have a friend there have them do every thing that will keep your pulse down. and actually knowing what the snake also helps but dont go chasing it. hmm i think thats it…. oh shopping list

-gauze

-2 large constrictive bandages “the white ones are best for this”
