1. tubercolosis starts off bad because you got a tent, fire, and people to care for you, then progressively gets better as you spend more time in the wilderness with less shelter, less to eat, and a 200lbs guy to care for that doesnt know *beep* about surviving in nature. when that guy learns to survive on his own and is even ready to care for you, your illness will worsen again

2. makeup is readily available in the tundra

3. mosquitos can suddenly appear in such masses that they block out the sun. there will then be not a single insect in sight for the next couple of weeks

4. if you get attacked by mosquitos it's best to undress so they have easier access to your skin and then knock yourself out so you can lie still for them to suck your delicious juices. what we learn is that getting bitten by insects is actually favorable and you should assist them in any way

5. groundhogs have no sense of smell

6. if you hear a plane, SCREAM! they are bound to hear you, a couple of miles away, through the cabin, over the noise of the engine/propellers

7. females carry the heavy stuff, especially if they got a disease of the respiratory system

8. you have two guns. dont use them, rather hunt caribou with spears

9. drink coca cola

bonus:

10. do everything either a lot or a little worse than the edge (1997), still receive a better rating on imdb ;)

TB can actually come and go in severity so that part wasnt necessarily unrealistic. TB is a funky disease- not like other ones.

11. If you find a rifle in a dead guy's plane on the tundra be sure to bury it with him. It's not like you're going to need it.

12. If you run really fast you can kill caribou with a spear. (You know that rifle would have been handy there.)

13. When you're really frustrated always take it out on your plane.

14. If you decide to deviate from your flight plan it's not necessary to let anyone know.

15. Caribou fat tastes really good.

16. If you crash on the tundra, abandon your plane and start walking. It's not like it's a large thing search aircraft could see or anything.

You forgot one.

You're freezing cold shacking up with a cute Eskimo with a big round ass, who's obvious into you and you don't do the nasty, that's just wrong, what is he gay?
