[QUOTE="dstark, post: 1148153, member: 48159"] Ditto on the first aid stuff. After taking a EMT course and pondering the many ways to hurt yourself in the backcountry I found myself wanting to take along an excessively large and complete first aid kit. But reality forces me to balance my kit for weight and space. I don't pretend to be an authority on the subject but I'd recommend a quickclot sponge or something like an Israeli dressing as a possible lightweight solution to a serious deep wound. I also like to carry a small roll of medical tape that could be used to help make emergency bandages or secure a splint or tourniquet. Great write up Len, it made me reconsider some of my kit!
