While i understand not all of these you will encounter, if any at all but I wanted to make sure i hadn't forgotten any. Here is a list of potential dangers I have compiled. Obviously some fall under stupidity.


Dehydration
Hypothermia
Bug bites (ticks Lyme disease)
Sanitation (norovirus)
Blisters that turn into Infections
Sprains
Hunger and thirst
Black bears, cougars
Food or water poisoning
Mistaken by hunter for a deer and shot
Kennebec river ( if you decided to wade across vs use canoe )
Hundred Mile Wilderness
Rattler or copperhead
Black widow, brown recluse spiders
(lightning storm) or heavy downpour or snow
Knife edge rocks
Crazy people
Getting lost


Any others that come to mind?
