Big deal, tiny package!

This little guy came with me on a backpacking trip and really saved the day. the GF got blisters and the Mole skin was a life saver. It also helped to kill time. We were having a hard time falling asleep so we started quizzing each other from the medical guide book that is included. I never knew that if you need to keep a victims tongue out, it was cool to safety pin it to their lip.

Great kit. It's amazing how much usefull stuff they can cram into a 1 lbs pouch. I leave it in my truck and plan and using it for weekend camping/backpacking trips. Inside the pouch they also include a spreadhsheet of the kit's contents and order #'s so you can easily refill.

This kit provides pretty much everything you'd need on your backpacking adventures. It pretty much weighed what my old kit did that was a mishmash of stuff that didn't work out in the end for me when I needed it most. It packs down nicely and everything is organized and easy to find. Nice carry handle and heavy duty material to stand up to years of use. Highly recommend, especially for the price on SteepandCheap.

Well thought out, a bargain for what's in it.

I looked around for a while to find a medical kit for all my adventures and finally decided that I need more than just one kit. The Trekker is perfect for weekend backpacking trips, biking, hiking etc. Light and practical. I ended up buying a Comprehensive Kit for my larger expeditions and Ultralite .7 for when I'm adventure racing. These guys make the best kits out there. Never been let down. Oh forgot to mention Dr Weiss's Book in the kit has and will save your hind!!

This first aid kit is solid. Has the basics. I keep it in my jeep. I added some bandages, basic medications (advil, benadryl, etc) and some other miscellaneous stuff. Nothing to complain about. Great price here. Buy one!
