Just wondering how many of you carry a first aid kit on your harness?

Some seem to use them other don't. I personally don't as i found they spilt their contents and generally got hung up on everything.

They are a PITA but if (heaven forbid) you should need it and it is 90' below you on the ground then the annoyance of that would seem fairly insignificant i reckon.

keep a whistle round my neck and a knife on my harness. i keep the blood packs in the thigh pocket of my trousers. i had the same problem with the full kit strapped to the harness. most of it ended up on the deck. i would advise stashing blood packs on you somewhere as you just never know whats going to happen.

carry an army field dressing in my leg pocket easy to access and at the end of the day plasters etc are a pain in the backside to mess about with in a tree, if it's bad then slap a dressing on it and bail out of the tree
