The First Aid kit will be different for different types of camping. A First Aid kit should hold the basics. Learn first aid techniques through a certified course. Contact your local Red Cross chapter for details. For day hikes, you should carry a small First Aid kit.
Hikers carry all their gear, so weight is important.
When you hike near your car or campsite, however, weight is less important since you can leave some supplies in your car or tent. To make your own First Aid kit, find a container. For other uses, First Aid kits need to be in a sturdy box, tin, or plastic pail. After you have gathered the supplies, pack them in your container. While you are packing each item, review how its purpose and how it is used.
