If you have kids I recommend added a little box of TicTac’s to your first aid kit. When your child gets a bee sting or a scrape, a TicTac goes a long way to calm them down while you apply first aid. They last forever and take very little room. My 2 cents.

Aaron, this was an excellent presentation. I'm 73 and still hitting the "light" trails (no steep elevation changes). Our day packs are pretty similar down to the med kit, EDC survival pouch and the Grayl. My med kit is in a plastic see-through jar and if it gets dunked it floats; includes everything I need and I'm also a retired Air Force paramedic, knowing how to improvise. I like the Fenix headlamp capabilities vs my Olight i3TEOS which doubles as a headlamp affixed to a ball cap or Nite Ize head strap. That fixed blade is awesome but I've always been able to get by with a good tactical folder or a Swiss Army Rangergrip 178. I may carry a fixed blade neck knife by CRKT which can be affixed to my hiking pole as a spear using duct tape or 550 cord. My Grayl is a 32oz water purifier and I just carry a 500ml Smart Water bottle full. Another option I use is a 1 liter Vapur bag with built-in filter. I use the Mystery Ranch Scree 32 which I absolutely love for hiking and traveling (along with a small 5.11 duffle/backpack bag). I'm constantly aware of what I pack trying to keep it light by eliminating those "what if's" situations, my downfall of years ago. I'm getting ready to hike an AT section to find a waterfall and my loadout weighs just under 12 pounds which includes a Helikon Tex poncho for a shelter and the Helikon Tex Swagman Roll in case I overnight it. My ground sheet is a cut piece of tyvek. On occasion I like to take a Simple Shot sling shot and a small leather belt pouch filled with 3/8" steel balls. The sling is usually kept in my back pocket or a cargo pocket. It's never meant for hunting, mostly practicing, however if survival becomes an issue it's available. BTW that waterfall is gorgeous and waterfalls are my usual hiking destinations.

9:05 I actually AM a medical professional, and that's why I will NEVER use a maxpedition bag for medical supplies. They're not waterproof or sterile enough to keep medical supplies, better to keep them in separate ziploc bags and use a small dry bag. Those maxpedition bags are porous and dont wash well, meaning they keep a LOT of germs and bacteria on and in them.

As usual, thank you so much. Two tips from a friend of mine who has hiked Kilimanjaro, all the Colo 14-ers, etc., is this: 1) For long day hikes into the mountains, always have a good quality poncho (usually about $30). It will keep rain off of you and your pack. It needs to be more of a nylon-type so it won't shred on branches. No suits or other gimmicks; most will soak through in a good downpour, and you will be miserable. This might be "too much" for a casual hike. 2) Pack Tums in your emergency kit. Sometimes the altitude will affect people, and they can hardly move due to gastro distress. Tums can save the day, apparently, and would not take up much room! Love your videos; I'm learning so much!

I like a camp towel which could be used as a trauma bandage. Use a web belt for a tourniquet. I would recommend a Swiss Army Knife with a saw blade if you want one knife that can do it all. I don't know for day hikes that it makes sense for multiple knives. For day hikes, Iodine tablet instead of water filter. I think one light is sufficient for a day bag with a few bateries. For EDC I prefer no duplicates. For bugout bag redundancy okay. My EDC bag and my day hike are the same.

I have loved building my 3 day pack and concurrently creating my 1 day/scout pack. My goal was to put the scout pack in my 3 day so that everything in the day pack was integral to the 3 day. I based it on a 3 liter Marine Corps issue Camelback and it is sub 10 lbs. I got an all titanium cook system, my befree water filter in a titanium tall pot (it started life as a coffee press), light weight fire options with exotac firesteel and lighter sleeve, poncho shelter with cordage, comfort via an inflatable seat, an ultralight nightcore headlamp, and my trusty rangergrip. I started this kit with the Grayl but decided the extra weight over the be free wasnt necessary for its extra capability especially as its capacity is so small for the weight. The beauty of the Marine Corps pack is it already has pouch size containers keeping that weight down. Cool to see your ideas.

Leaning toward the Scree 32. Also, I hate carrying more than a liter of water if there is a water source on the way I use my Grayl filter purifier bottle. Also, I always carry my sidearm 9mm or my .45.

Loved the effort and thought that you put into this video, it was a learning experience for me on how to lighten my load on a day hike and still take all the things that I really need in most any situation. Just curious about one thing that caught my eye, since you had a pocket knife and a very nice fixed blade was the Swiss multi tool really needed on a day hike? Or maybe just eliminate the pocket knife if you actually think you might need the Swiss multi tool or vice versa because all three seem to be overkill to me.

Thank you! Details, background and function of the gear is appreciated! When watching your coulee comparison video and your mystery ranch UA comparison. I’m between the coulee 25 and UA24 for an everyday all purpose(including light hiking) and often carting extra gear for the kids. Opinion between the 2? I think I prefer the profile and Futura harness of the coulee if I can put a laptop (in a case) in the bladder pouch. Dedicated laptop sleeve and cordura on the UA24 are also nice. Please let me know what you think.

I would recommend ibuprofen. Besides painkiller, it functions as an inflammation reducer. But you would need to realize that your problem is compounded with inflammation (i.e. swollen ankle, breathing difficulties) in order to use it. Tweezers is also a must to remove foreign objects. I know compactness is your goal. But a little plastic syringe is good for washing out wounds. As for your charging cableS, they do sell 3-in-1 usb cables now. They are not rated for data, but they have heads to charge USB-C, Thunderbolt and Micro USB. Might want to pack 2 cables anyway as cables can go bad. (They're rated for about 10,000 plugs.)

Medkit could use some saline for deeper wounds and cuts (that are not big enough for tourniquet) don’t know why but all videos I see are always carrying disinfectant wipes, that only works for superficial cuts and scrapes, when deeper you really need saline solution to wash out the wound, also stops the bleeding and is better to not get surrounding tissue inflammated, also it can be used as eye wash... really there is no reason not to carry saline, as much as you can bare to fit in your kit but if streamlined 40ml is pretty good, also if those are nitrile gloves crammed in to there in the front right side they won’t do you much good, gloves are mainly to protect you from getting dirt an bacteria in to a wound not the other way around those gloves are dirty af, please protect them until you use them😉 TY for great content you have inspired at least 2 changes to my kit in last month👍

A good way to lighten your load is to replace specialized gear with multi-purpose items. One of my most important multi-function items is my bandana. A bandana can be used as a wound pad, a pressure dressing, a tourniquet, an arm sling, a strap for a splint, and much more. Just imagine everything that you can dump out of your first aid kit when you have a bandana in your pocket. This is not hype from some bush-league bush craft personality. It is solid, old-fashioned wisdom taught in the Boy Scouts nearly 50 years ago which has served me well throughout my life. Remember what Mors Kochanski says: "The more you know, the less you carry."

He has done budget setups before. But really it's better to save up and get the high-quality stuff than the cheap stuff that you'll just have to replace in the future.

Katadyn BeFree water filter 1.0L -Holds 34oz -Weighs 2.3oz -Filters 1000 liters -$25 filter -Packs smaller than a tennis ball. Grayl -Holds 16oz -Weighs 10.9oz -Filters 150 liters -$25 filter -Doesn't pack down. Its no contest. The Katadyn Has high flow rate, just fill and squeeze to drink and you can use it to fill other bottles too. The Katadyn is also $25 cheaper.

Love that compact medical kit! Will be putting one together. That knife is pretty sweet! I love it and want one. I carry a much lighter Condor Terrasaur of 1095 which works for me. I do have a modified Becker BK16 which comes along sometimes as well. The scales on your knife are awesome. I love your use of those little pouches which can be transferred easily between packs. I cannot get my boys to happily carry their own lightweight backpacks, though. As far as Swiss knives, I like the One-Handed Trekker.

One thing I can tell you from experience….don’t carry a hemostatic agent if you don’t have any medical training. That stuff can actually cause more damage than the actual initial injury.

This is not day hiking. This is a survival pack. Don't need three knives for a day hike. water, lunch, in reach maybe some snacks and the first aid kit. Good to go.

good vid thank you but as a military trained medic, I see this a lot, hikers home made up med kit, it needs to be obvious normal red or green, in an emergency it may not be you looking in your pack for a med kit and it slows help down when they have to open all the sacs you have in your kit. its always better to be in a prominent position in your pack and be visually obvious red with green with med kit written on it, foer someone trying to save your life..... just saying I see this mistake regularly.
