I've got a little bit of shelter from the wind. 我已經(jīng)有了避風的防護
If you look at the difference between the wind up here 你看看兩個地方風速的差異
reading 45 miles an hour,but down here 上面是每小時四十五英里 但是下面
Well, it's only reading about 5 miles an hour. 只有每小時五英里
That's a huge difference in wind speeds. 這風速可是天差地別
And wind speeds correlate to wind chill.Up here, you can have minus-40. 而風速與風寒相關 在上面 可能有零下40度
In here, it's gonna be way, way warmer.Let's keep digging. 在這兒 可溫暖的多多了 我們繼續(xù)挖
With time running against you, 在這分秒必爭的時刻
it's vital that you dig a very basic snow hole. 挖出一個基本的雪洞是至關重要的
Make it just big enough to squeeze your body into. 確保這洞能大到容納下你的身體
Once you're in,pull any loose blocks of snow around the opening 躺進去之后 在洞口堆點松散的雪
to help keep out the freezing-cold wind. 以抵御肆虐的寒風
Okay, well, I'm out of almost all of the wind in here.It's a huge difference. 我這兒幾乎吹不到風了 這差別真是天堂與地獄
And all it is is a little bolt hole, 總的來說只要一個避難所
little escape chamber that, in this sort of wind,could save your life. 而不是逃生 在這種風力的情況下 可以拯救你的生命
Okay, into the snow cave. 在這雪洞里
The good thing about snow is that it's a great insulator. 雪的一項好處就是它是絕佳的隔熱體
Whatever the weather outside,it's gonna be a pretty constant 32 degrees in here. 無論外面天氣如何 這兒恒溫華氏32度
There's no doubt it's a hard 15, 20 minutes to make this sort of thing. 挖洞的這十多分鐘 無疑是很艱難辛苦的
You're much better off working hard getting out of the weather 但努力一把躲避惡劣天氣
than trudging for hour after hour into a blizzard, getting nowhere. 可比長時間在暴風雪中 步履艱難無處可走要好的多
