A great choice for guides and outfitters, the Adventure Medical Kits Mountain Series Fundamentals is built for trip leaders who are planning lengthy outings to remote locations or just need to be prepared for a wide variety of emergency scenarios. To build a kit of this size on your own would undoubtedly take an incredible amount of time, so purchasing it as a pre-assembled kit not only prepares you and your party for adventure but it saves time too. The long list of practical contents is highlighted by a 4 x 36 inch, hand moldable SAM® splint, comprehensive wound cleaning and closure supplies, and a book entitled Comprehensive Guide to Wilderness & Travel Medicine by Eric A. Weiss M.D., a leading wilderness medicine authority. And just like a hospital emergency room, the kit's components are organized by injury, including corresponding first aid instruction cards to give you the confidence you need at a critical time.

Worth every penny

Rating:****
This kit was a blessing when one of the people in our group took a bad fall and got a lot of cuts and brush burns. It is a little heavy, but that's because it is very comprehensive with a good amount of most kinds of first aid supplies, not just one or two of each item.
