SEVERE WEATHER HAZARD
In some climactic conditions (for example, severe storms, high winds, or
heavy snow cover), stakes and guy cords may not be sufficient to anchor
a tent securely, which could result in the tent being picked up or blown
away, causing death, serious injury, or permanent disability. Under such
conditions:
• DO use supplemental means to securely anchor the tent, for example,
snow pegs, skis, and/or heavy rocks or other heavy objects.
• DO seek appropriate shelter, for example, in a house, cabin,
building, or secure structure other than a tent.
Your failure to follow this warning will cause death, serious injury, or
permanent disability to you or others.
PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN
Children will not understand and appreciate the FIRE, CARBON
MONOXIDE POISONING, SUFFOCATION, AND SEVERE WEATHER

to these hazards if no adults are present. For this reason:
• DO NOT leave children unattended inside a tent or in camp.
• DO NOT allow children to assemble a tent.
• DO NOT allow children to enter or exit a tent except through
the door.
• DO NOT allow children to remain in a closed-up tent on
hot days.
Your failure to follow this warning will cause death, serious injury, or
permanent disability to your children.
