Great video! Really good detail. I always carry a tourniquet. When I was 10 I cute my left hand off in a boating accident. I literally bled to death and was brought back several time. It took 14 hours in an ER to stabilize me. An old farmer using a bandanna and a pen as a windlass is why I’m alive today. We only found him after I swam out of the river and we drove 8 miles. I have first hand experience (pun intended) on why you always have a tourniquet.
Love the video! Maybe a couple things you could add. A vial of clove oil. In case of cracked tooth or cavity. Safety glasses. Don’t want to get a twig or a thorn in the old eyeball. And maybe instead of Benadryl get some quercetin.
Excellent video Evan and Jeffery.As time has gone on I've come to the conclusion that I'd rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it when it comes to trauma care. Before I was playing the odds and trying to lighten the load but that just headed me toward what some call stupid light for some things. Jeffery really made a good point about losing some personal survival calories rather than not caring something that weighs 3-4oz. Nate
ER nurse here. Put some Pepcid in the same package as your Benadryl. Benadryl is a H1 antagonist and Pepcid is an H2. That’s where we start for allergic reaction before moving to epi and steroids. Also, Leuko tape is the duct tape of the medical world. Works better than mole skin and had multiple uses.
One of the most rewarding and exciting courses I’ve ever taken was the NOLS Wilderness First Aid. It changed my whole approach and outlook to first aid equipment and techniques. WFR is my next goal. Too bad Jeff isn’t closer! You guys rocked this video. So informative. Thank you.
I think I want to do one of the red 58 pouches for in my kit bag as a boo-boo kit for me, because I’m in the same boat I do not use a lot of first aid kits when I’m out solo. But I really like your red tool roll and how you have it set up, as a scoutmaster when I am on scout camp outs I need a lot more medical equipment lol
That's like asking what's the best truck brand: each has its pros, cons, adherents, and detractors. I like the CAT, but that's bred from familiarity. The RMT gets the nod, too. About the only one I don't like is the Rat, but again, some do. The CAT seems to fit what most people think of when they hear the word 'tourniquet', so it cognitively makes more sense and is subjectively easier to teach.

Honored to be included on this video! Ask any questions you may have
Great work Jeffery. Any recommendations for sourcing pills in blister packs? I only seem to find bottle and the pills get smashed way to fast.

Always excited when I see y'all drop a new longhouse video! 🙂
Awesome resource! Thanks guys!

Great stuff, and thanks for taking the time to go through it. Always great to see other people's kits.
Good content. The mentality of it won't happen to me is the bane of all whom its happened to.
Hey guys great video ! Always look forward to the long house. can we get a breakdown list here in the comments by chance.

Rat tourniquets are good for kids, CAT doesn't go small enough on littles.
