Fantastic kit! Only thing I would be cautious about is the tampon for plugging the penetrating wounds. There is not enough packing material in a tampon to gain source control of a bleed add some Compressed gauze instead. Keep up the good work!👍
@CascadeBackcountry
@CascadeBackcountry 3 жыл бұрын
Thanks! The tampon is mainly there as fire starter, a filter, etc.. never intended for it to be used as bleeding control really. In a pinch it could be used over a wound with direct, mechanical pressure.

A zip tie wrapped around the top of the light tight under the thumb depresser works great to keep the link lighter from leaking gas

You can get small waterproof lighter containers that your lighter slips into to avoid the gas leak. It also adds overall protection

I think these would make a fantastic option for a 10 C's kit for when your away from base camp fishing or exploring or whatever, I see a ton of stuff in there I probably wouldn't carry, but I still think that the chest kit itself is a great idea. How do the bits that go under your backpack hold up from being worn under your pack?
@CascadeBackcountry
@CascadeBackcountry 2 жыл бұрын
Ya know... this kit was mostly a concept. I did carry it for one summer backpacking tho and I can say I had no issues with the straps under my backpack shoulder straps. There is a lot of stuff in this kit and is probably unnecessary for the average outdoor adventure

Such as a flashlight, pocket knife, ferro rod, compass...etc... In my backpack, large equipment will be in. Such as a emergency blanket, poncho, water bottle, some food...etc...
