Easy Care organization and instructions plus supplies for a week-long backcountry trip.
Stuffed with a wide assortment of supplies for handling ailments and injuries while climbing and backcountry skiing, the Adventure Medical Kits Mountain Series Weekender is also great for car camping and fishing trips too. No matter where you take it, the Easy Care organization system provides an immediate view of the first aid kits contents and also offers direction (via enclosed instruction cards) so you know where to begin and what to do next when your party suddenly encounters a difficult situation. More comprehensive than the Light & Fast and Ultralight & Watertight series, the Weekender includes additional useful tools, such as 3 single use thermometers, a CPR face mask, and a roll of duct tape for holding an improvised splint in place.

A complete first aid kit
I bought this AMK kit for my home. I plan on using it when I have typical first aid needs at home. But also following our country's need for individuals/families to be prepared in times of disaster(s), both common and unexpected. In Oklahoma, that's smart because of what tornadoes can do. Go to the FEMA website for checklists to prepare yourself in times of emergency.
Does the job
I own this kit and it has pretty much everything you need to get the job done, although it is a little on the heavy side.
Good Overall Value
Purchased this kit to have a upgrade for my other lighter kits. I am pretty happy with the stuff included and added few more personal things for my family. It's good for car camping or a longer backpacking trip, as well as for emergency purpose. It's not small, but not heavy. I actually like to have this one in my emergency pack as it's almost perfectly sufficient for that purpose. I only wish the kit itself was made with a stronger and water-proof quality.
