First Aid Skills for the Backcountry
Written by bushcraft educator Dave Canterbury alongside Jason A. Hunt, a volunteer firefighter and first responder, this field guide focuses on treating injuries and medical emergencies when professional help is hours or days away. It moves through foundational survival skills before turning to practical emergency protocols for wounds, fractures, environmental hazards and other trauma.
Along the way it covers assessment techniques used by emergency responders, guidance on building a suitable first aid kit, and notes on plant-based remedies that can supplement conventional treatment in the field.
Best suited to hikers, campers and wilderness travellers looking to build on existing first aid knowledge, rather than as a substitute for formal training.
