TRAPPED IN THE WILDERNESS
On a beautiful warm day in June 2003, Blake Stanfield decided to take his father, Neil, on a trip into the Alaskan
wilderness. On the first morning, they set off together down the Koyukuk River on their raft.
They had only travelled a few miles down the river when they saw a huge wall of ice in front of them! Their raft
crashed into the ice and the men fell into the freezing cold water. If the water hadn’t been so fast-flowing, they
would have been able to crawl onto the ice, but instead it quickly sucked them under and swept them along. “What
have we done?” Blake thought at that point. But just then, he surfaced and saw his father holding onto an oar.
Neil was freezing cold and suffering from hypothermia. However, the two men managed to make their way to the
shore. Blake quickly lit a fire. He knew his father would die from the cold if he didn’t get warm soon.
The next morning, Blake knew that he had to get help as they had lost all their supplies – their food, tent and
clothes. He left his father and made his way towards a town 104 km away, singing loudly to scare off bears. He even
caught and ate ants and spiders to give him strength. But there was a problem. Meanwhile, Neil was also fighting to
stay alive. One time, he fell asleep and woke up just in time to keep his fire alight.
By Monday, both men were getting weaker and weaker from lack of food. “I wish I hadn’t left my father! “Blake
thought. But then, he had an idea. If he built a signal fire, any planes flying would hopefully see him. On Tuesday
evening, a pilot finally spotted Blake. After a short while, a rescue helicopter picked him up. They quickly found Neil.
The two men promised each other they would go on another trip together, but definitely without any swimming
under ice!
23. Where did Blake and his father start their rafting?

e) He didn’t swim underwater.
26. When were they rescued by a helicopter?
a) On Monday
b) On Thursday morning
c) On Tuesday evening
d) On Wednesday
e) On the first day of the rafting

a) They were very tired.
