Backcountry Medical Guide: In the wilderness, “first-aid” takes on a whole new definition. It's not just a temporary fix. It might be days – or even weeks – before medical assistance can be obtained. This book tells you what to do when you're far from help. Carefully structured for first-aid novices, it also aids medical professionals when hospital tools and technology are out of reach.

- Treatments and techniques for medical situations when the victim is far from help
- From minor conditions (blisters, nosebleeds, bug bites, toothaches) to major emergencies (broken limbs, hypothermia, burns, head injuries)
- Detailed list of medications and what to include in a first-aid kit
- Portable size with easy-to-reference format
