Moss does not point to civilization. A lot of people also have been mislead to the information moss only grows on the north side of trees. While in most cases this is true, it does not apply every single time you see moss on a tree. The reason moss would grow on the north side of a tree as opposed to the south side is lack of sunlight. Without direct sunlight, more of the moss is allowed to stay moist and grow it's little mossy heart out.

No. In northern climes, moss often grows most heavily on the north side of trees because it does not much like light. Civilization may lie to the north of you -- or not. If you are lost in the woods, going downhill is the better bet for finding people.

nicely it is accessible to kill somebody with one strike yet its no longer precisely a tension factor, its in basic terms that tension factors are sometime positioned on susceptible goals so there are factors which you will strike to do serius injury, yet some people take this concept way way way too far, even the old instructor and masters do no longer make lots of the claims people make on the instant
