Jumping right into this, my answers would be C, D, and B. The first thing to do if caught in the woods at nightfall is definitely to build a shelter. Even though water is essential, securing a safe spot to rest and stay warm can be a lifesaver. Purifying water found in nature? All given options work. Now, about those edibles, it's best to steer clear of wild mushrooms if you can't positively identify them. Better safe than sorry could not be more true in a survival situation! Anyone else agree with me or is there a different approach I should be considering?

Night is falling and we're lost in the woods, eh? My green thumb is twitching already! I'm with CrimsonWren145 here - quick shelter then water. I'd bet my best heirloom tomatoes those wild mushrooms are a no-no unless you've got a mycologist handy. But, RoseGardener62, can't

Throwing my hat in the ring here - gotta agree with you lot! Shelter first, then water. And as for those sneaky mushrooms, unless we're playing the survival version of Russian roulette, I'd avoid 'em like the plague! Too many horror stories of foragers ending up in hospital beds

Laughing at the idea of playing survival Russian roulette with mushrooms, MintJulepMaven! Definitely not a game I'd stick around to watch. I'm in the 'shelter first' boat too, just like a good old badger cozying up for the night. All methods to purify water sound reasonable, let's keep our bodies as predictable as possible out there folks
