Look for natural windbreaks to shield against harsh winds, and avoid low-lying areas prone to flooding by opting for elevated ground. Ensure nearby access to resources like firewood and water while also looking for natural insulation, such as moss or pine needles, to keep warm. Pay attention to wildlife activity—signs of nearby animals can indicate resource availability but avoid heavily trafficked areas.
