Endure, Resist, and Protection from Elements

[Ridley's Cohort]

The really weird thing is that rangers get the two combat survival spells, but not the wilderness survival spell.

Interesting point. Really the Ranger should have both.

BTW, it would be reasonable to allow a character to use Wilderness Lore to avoid damage from adverse weather. But it would make sense they could extend this protection to someone else...

This is already in the rules: DC 15 Wilderness Lore check to gain +2 on Fort saves against severe weather. You can extend the benefit to one extra character for every point by which your check exceeds 15. See the PHB, p.76.
