    I recommend having a pair of tweezers to get rid of splinters and ticks or if the dog has a thorn in their paw.

      Thanks for your comment! You are exactly right! I also always take my Gerber Dime multi tool (love is because it’s small, lighted and just what I need) that has a pair of tweezers. Tweezers are definitely a must as well!

    Tweezers work for some slivers, but add a needle for the difficult ones. I keep my needle in one of those orange plastic tubes that I keep my wooden matches in.

    Great job on the kit. It’s very comprehensive without going over board. I’ve been hiking since the 70s and that’s all I’ve ever needed.

      Thank you, Debra! Sounds like you’ve got some serious miles on those soles and have probably seen some incredible things! Thanks so much for watching! Really appreciate your kind words!

    Hey thanks for the video! I found it useful. I was looking to do a lightweight version of mine, and I really like your pill bags. One thing I didn't see on your kit was like an after bite for insects for like a wasp sting or tick bite. Also some tweezers come in handy to remove splinters 😁

      Thank you! Ya, the pill bags have been awesome. Super useful!
      I think you're right about the after bite treatment. We didn't have tons of insects in Utah where I did most of my adventuring. Mosquitos, but they are just annoying. But having just moved to VA at the end of last year, I definitely need to add a tick key and some tweezers! I'm going to throw that in there!
      Thanks so much for watching!

    I need to up my first aid game. Mine is basically antacid, ibuprofen, and a couple bandaids. 🤣

      🤣 Sounds like you have what you need!
      I started taking first aid more serious when my daughter started coming with me more and more. I've rarely used anything in my FAK, but nice to know it's in the pack! Thanks, Buckley!!

    Awesome tips, Jeff! Especially the contact lens container is brilliant.

    • @DoseofDirt

      Thanks, Timothy! The contact case has worked out well! Nothing worse than leaving the lube home because it's too bulky and then needing some lube mid-hike/run. 😬🔥😱

    I guess it wouldn’t necessarily need to be in the kit, but I’m wondering if a bandanna might be useful to bring. Thanks!

    • @DoseofDirt
      @DoseofDirt  2 года назад

      I think that's a good addition. I always have a buff around my neck and often an extra in my pack, but having a dedicated (and clean!) bandana in the FAK is probably an excellent idea! Thanks!

    Recommend bleed stop powder?

    • @DoseofDirt

      That’s not something I’ve used before but sounds like it would be a good addition! Thanks, Scott!! And thanks for watching!
