 being prepared is not over rated |
 |
As I wrote a few days ago I cutt mysef really bad in the woods. that was the 1 time ever I didnt bring my first aid gear. Very dumb, you should always be prepared and always ready! I should have known better.

Just a suggestion guys, throw an extra bottle of sunscreen in your first aid kit. You won't use it much (out of sight out of mind) and if you ran out you could prevent a nasty burn. They usually have a pretty good shelf life too. You would want something spf 15-30.

Me three.
I have one for backpacking actually, but I haven't kept it replenished like I should... it's only half-stocked.

I recently bought a small travel one and have already used it...for other people. It is a good thing to have around.

ahhh.. the joyous occasions of performing dumb acts through liquid confidence.
as for a first aid kit, thats something i really haven't paid much attention to. granted my skins made of steel, and my bones have been found to contain adamantium, i guess it'd be a good idea to pick one up. thanks for the heads up max. hope that cut heals well.

You should try to put one together before you buy one. That way you can build a couple for different packs for the same price of the store bought ones.
