Hey folks,
I am making a fist-aid kit to keep in the truck. I want it to be light and small enough that I can carry it while on short hikes. However, we are involved in a dangerous sport and I would like to be sure if either myself or someone else gets hurt badly from a fall or a GSW, I want to give everyone a fighting chance to live.
This is a quick list of essentials that I can think of. What do you think I can add?
