RE: How do you UL PJ I made the kit myself. Got items from EMT supply, Drugstore.com, Walgreens, local medical supply stores. Some items I had to buy bulk, so resupply is going to be easy. Use various aloksaks to o... |

How do you UL? Two things I carry regardless of weight are: 1. 15 oz. Deluxe Custom First Aid Kit - I choose to carry this so I can deal with almost any issue with our scouts, because it is inevitable the scouts... |

Photon Light Proton Personal Flashlight I would give the Proton a 4 out of 5 score primarily because of its high cost ($69). It is an excellent light if you need to do any emergency signaling at night or if you need a high intensity beam fo... |

Six Moon Designs Lunar Solo I like the simplicity in the concept of the design. It is a combination of bivy sack and single wall tent with plenty of room that weighs in at 25 ounces. The bathtub floor and netting along the floor... |
