During your stay, always try to keep safety in the forefront by making sure you're handling your equipment carefully and clearly marking ropes that can be a trip hazard with colored fly tape. Accidents such as being jabbed by a branch during a fall could be avoided by a little prevention. If there is deadfall on the ground, remove as much as possible and clear the area. To increase your camping safety and keep your grounds as accident-free as possible, begin by walking the area and looking for hazards such as broken glass, sticks jammed into the ground at dangerous angles, slippery spots to avoid or rocky areas that could be dangerous in a fall. Every camper should have a first aid kit and survival aids packed alongside their tents and coolers, and it's a wise thing to know something about handling injuries and the people that are suffering from them.
