Gear of the Year Awards 2015: Adventure Medical Ultralight/Watertight .5

A good first-aid kit is one of the first things on many campers’ shopping lists; a lot can happen out in the wilderness, from scraped knees to broken bones, and it pays to be prepared. Headquartered in the heart of New Hampshire’s White Mountains, Adventure Medical knows a thing or two about adventuring in the great outdoors, and since 1977 they’ve been providing innovative, high quality first aid and preparedness products for work, home, and adventure.
