As the tithe states- how did travelers know where to find water and shelter (oasis) whilst traveling through a desert?

General Question
Hello! I'm a bit of a TTRPG hobbyist and an avid enjoyer of the survival genre. However something that's kinda bothered me slightly since I started running my own games is that survival rules in some of the bigger TTRPGs can feel lackluster. I'm writing a book to try and improve on this, and even add a few extra things depending on how expansive this already gets.
Why I write this post and any subsequent posts? I understand the bare bones basics of surviving in extreme cold environments, in surviving in the desert, but I don't know much else about other environments or even the finer points. SO!
What all needs to be considered for surviving cold environments? (Think Alaska/North Canada). I know a decent shelter that keeps the snow off and the heat near you is important for the night, and good insulative clothes, but anything else I may be missing?
Travelling to Yukon and doing a backcountry hike, will be camping overnight, although I'm pretty used to camping at BC parks, still a newbie in general and only been doing this a couple years.
I have bear spray, but otherwise what tips do you have to stay safe? even your most obvious tips would be good to know. What's worth carrying up? Is having a gun necessary? Is hanging up food away from the site enough, or do I need a specific container?
What do you wish first timers did better?
