Thanks, excellent list and while I don't have a 10x30, my truck kit should be good enough.

Re training -- one of the local REI stores has a Wilderness Medicine Institute (NOLS) Wilderness First Aid course scheduled in October; this is an infrequent training opportunity so I will be taking advantage.
