the Minimalist First Aid Pack

The Minimalist Pack (3.75 oz/110 g) is our smallest pack yet has many of the features found in our larger packs. It is designed for anyone who needs an "ouch" kit for a afternoon or day trip. It can also meet the demands of longer, low-risk trips where outside communication and evacuation assistance is possible and timely. It carries enough supplies to address minor wounds, blisters, headaches, minor pain, diarrhea, fever, etc. and anaphylaxis.

This is not sold as a complete first aid kit. The pack is shown with suggested contents to illustrate it's design. Contents sold separately.
