Which is true of hypothermia *

Hypothermia is one of the deadliest conditions hikers can face in the Smokies.

Hypothermia can afflict someone in any season in the Smokies, not just winter.

If someone is shivering, they are experiencing mild hypothermia. It's important to act at this stage to prevent hypothermia from worsening.

Removing wet clothing and replacing it with dry clothing stored safely in your backpack is a good way to treat mild hypothermia.

All of the above.

When someone reaches a more severe stage of hypothermia, they often don't think they're cold and sometimes even shed their clothing because they feel hot. *

True

False

Which of the following is a way to treat mild to moderate hypothermia? *

Replace wet clothing with dry, insulating clothing.

Drink warm, preferably sugary, drinks.

Build a fire (if you're building your own fire and your fingers/hands are cold, put them directly against the skin in your armpits to help warm them back up for dexterity)

Try to sit on something other than the ground.

All of the above

A copy of your responses will be emailed to the address you provided.
