Default Starvation, Thirst and Endurance

Hello !

I'm toying with the idea of a short exploration adventure 30s/Victorian for my sons, based on a grid or hex map, using BRP (which I have not got yet, currently using 5th edition CoC). I want it to be a test of survival as much as combat skills, with crossing rivers, scaling cliffs, exploring caves and ruined temples on a par with hacking through elephant grass or rattan, or negotiating hip-deep swamps and getting some sleep amidst clouds of biting insects at night.

Does anyone have a few simple hunger/thirst/endurance rules to hand I can use? I'm leery of using RQ3 Fatigue, though I could do so - does it extend to food and cross-country travel? I can't remember?
