Adventure Medical Ultralight .5 First Aid Kit

Adventure Medical Ultralight .5 First Aid Kit description

You like to go light, but you like to go prepared. Now you can do both with Adventure Medical's new Ultralight Series kits. Adventure racers, backpackers, hikers, bikers, and climbers all rave about the Ultralight .5. Paddlers love its waterproof design which consists of an inner leakproof bag with airtight seal (certified waterproof to 200') and a tough, lightweight outer bag made of 1.3oz silicone impregnated ripstop nylon. This outer bag also has the handiest little stuff pocket for driver's license, credit card, keys, etc. With this kit, you get just enough hospital quality supplies for one person all wrapped up in an ultralight package. SEE ULTRALIGHT .7 FOR VERSION WITH SUPPLIES FOR 2 PEOPLE (AMK0016).

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.

thanks, nice and waterproof

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.
