    In case you ever find yourself in this situation, you can also use the message SOS, its Morse code of three dots, three dashes, and three dots, or a triangle. For visibility during the day, build a smoky fire, and at night, three fires in an equilateral triangle.

    I’d probably have made it a lot bigger myself, but I’m glad it worked out for them!

      Yeah, I feel like it’s one of those situations where you try to think of what would be a size that should be more than enough and then double it (or use the whole canvas if it isn’t as big as that).

        There’s a big canvas there, I’d certainly try to fill it, I have nothing better to do if I’m stranded anyway and bigger the better for this.
