When traveling or being outdoors, it is important to carry a first aid kit with you no matter what type of activity you are doing (camping, backpacking, rock climbing, kayaking, biking, anything). Many first aid kits will just be a few simple items that are good for any activity. However, it is important to have an in depth kit that will allow you to face most emergencies and challenges that you come across.
The only way to be fully prepared for the trip that you are taking would be to buy a sport specific first aid kit or to create your own. The American Red Cross has a good list of general supplies that should be in any first aid kit, including:
- 2 packets of aspirin (81 mg each)
- 1 blanket (space blanket)
- 1 breathing barrier (with one-way valve)
- 1 instant cold compress
- 2 pair of non-latex gloves (size: large)
- 2 hydrocortisone ointment packets (approximately 1 gram each)
- Scissors
- 1 roller bandage (3 inches wide)
- 1 roller bandage (4 inches wide)
- 5 sterile gauze pads (3 x 3 inches)
- 5 sterile gauze pads (4 x 4 inches)
- Oral thermometer (non-mercury/non-glass)
- 2 triangular bandages
- Tweezers
- First aid instruction booklet
You see the full list on their website.
However, if you are looking to create your own, there is a great website that sells the different items you would want to include and you are able to pick and choose rather than buying just a standardized kit. The Emergency Essentials House of Usher hd website allows you to select only the items that you want in your kit and purchase. You can see this great order page here

Remember, the equipment is no good if you do not know how to use it properly. I strongly encourage you to check out different websites on wilderness first-aid, look at taking courses, and reading as much about it as you possibly can. I mean, you wouldn’t want to screw up providing aid to one of your friends when they really need it would you?
