Adventure Medical Ultralight & Watertight .3 First Aid Kit

Item #AMK0127 | 49 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Useful Kit.

By Ranked #107 - Trail Running Accessories April 29, 2009

This is a prefect little kit for throwing in your pocket or bag during a short day hike, and I even started carrying it around town, just in case. Nothing in here is useless. The moleskin is nice for nasty blisters, the bandages are almost perfect size for scraping trees off exposed skin while skiing, and the knuckle bandages come in super handy when you are climbing up tricky projects. The safety pins are great too, because if you get a blister, you can lance it with one of these, instead of how I used to with a knife. The only thing holding this back from 5 stars, is the fact that it is the only kit in this series that doesn't include the watertight bag to keep it all dry. Easily fixed with a small ziplock. Great kit.
