Lago Blanco
• A source of drinkable
water and food
• It is located on la Isla
Grande Tierra del Fuego
• The water is perfectly safe
to drink
• Source of trout and other
fish
http://whereintheworldisksp.wordpress.com/
The weather in Tierra Del Fuego is the opposite of ours. The weather is very hot at
the beginning and end of the year and colder in the middle of the year. The best
time to go would be from January to March because it is not as cold as the rest of
the year and gets a decent amount of rain water which contestants can collect and
drink.

Possible Problem
The tribes may have to deal with rain or snow, both very
abundant in Tierra del Fuego. They can stay in their shelter in
case of rain or snow, and make sure to stay warm in a snow
storm. Weather on Tierra del Fuego is somewhat
unpredictable. it can rain, snow, and be sunny all within a 15
minute time span.

a specified location in order to tag
their partner

kilometer to a floating platform, on
which they will tag the last person

Avoiding Impacting the Environment
• Contestants will not be allowed to kill endangered animals,
or any animals that are not necessary for survival.
• Contestants will also be forbidden to destroy or harm any
plants that are not necessary to survive.
• They will also have to avoid
migratory paths, and keep their
fires controlled.

Source of Renewable Energy
On Tierra Del Fuego, there are several species of trees that are
good for making fires. Contestants can make fires in order to
stay warm and cook food using the wood found from the trees
around them.

If someone is in the need of medical attention, there will be
an on-site medical crew, and if it is very serious, they can
be transported by helicopter to Dr. Marcos Chamorro
Hospital which is open 24 hours a day for emergencies.

Medicinal plants
Survivors will have access to medicinal plants including Winter's
Bark and Misodendrum Linearifolium.
Winter’s bark can be used to cure toothaches, dermatitis, upset stomachs, and it
can be used as an anti- allergen.

Misodendrum linearifolium is a semi-parasitic plant that can be rubbed
on the body to relieve muscular pains.

Shelter
• A simple lean to is one of the best ways to go
• There are various types of trees that can be used as
support beams for the shelters structure.
• Various branches can be used as roofs on the tops of the
shelter.
• Bark from trees can be used as a sort of rope to tie together
the support beams together as well as the branches
