First Aid / Medical

A first aid or medical kit is an essential item you should take when going on a hike or an overnight backpacking trip. Each kit should vary depending on the medical conditions, the length and duration of the trip and the area you will be exploring. 

Prepackage kits like those from Adventure Medical Kits, are a great resource to a DIY kit. Please remember just as important as having the items is knowing how to use them and what is in your kit.
