Ben Corwin's review
We like these Adventure Medical Kits because of the waterproof, durable storage and small form factor. We have one in most packs. You can get away with a bit smaller if going for a solo trip, but never hurts to have a few extra first aid essentials on your hut trip. We do have a larger first aid kit at the hut as well (well-stocked and thought through, Laura is a physician), but for days on the trail you’ll want your own.
