Rob: fwiw, I'm afraid I don't think much of your "first aid kit". Not one triangular bandage, field dressing, or gauze roller bandage; only a couple of small sterile dressings. You're better equipped to treat a head cold than you are to treat a broken ankle or severe gash.<br><br>Have you taken a first aid course lately?<br><br>I also note that you're carrying 3 pounds of food and approximately 2.6 pounds of stove and fuel. Seems a little out of whack to me, especially as most of your food seems to be in the form of ready-to-eat snacks that don't require cooking. Just an observation.<br><br><br>Hope I don't sound snotty or superior, just questioning why you made some of the choices you did.
