Adventure Medical Ultralight .5 First Aid Kit

Adventure Medical Ultralight .5 First Aid Kit description

The Adventure Medical Ultralight .5 Kit allows you to go light, but still be prepared. Adventure racers, backpackers, hikers, bikers, and climbers all rave about the Ultralight .5. Paddlers love its waterproof design.

Bottom Line: Like to go light? Cut corners, but don't cut the cut-curing kit. Get the Ultralight .5 instead.

It's a great little (and light) first aid kit that fits in the smallest corner of your pack. Comes with a nice stuff sack plus waterproof resealable inner bag. Big enough to add a few of your own personal kit touches. I added some other medication (Immodium, Benadryl) plus some aluminium foil and a few water purification tablets.

The rope is a bit too stiff and rough on the hands. I think it's due to the high Bobbins but it does get good ratings, it is a spongy catch. It would not be good in a high friction environment like top roping or climbing where high wear will be encountered.It's light for its size.

I have used this thing for minor cuts and scrapes but never for anything serious. I take it on every backpacking trip I go on and it is so lightweight that you don't even notice it. It has a good assortment of first aid gear.

thanks, nice and waterproof
