Earl sent me the following recommendation to share here:

"Here are two books on wilderness first aid that I keep on my phone. Author is Eric Weiss. I hope we never need the books.

Eric A. Weiss, M.D., FACEP , is an Associate Professor of Surgery, Division of Emergency Medicine, and the Director of the Wilderness Medicine Fellowship at Stanford University. Dr. Weiss has been medical officer for the for the 1996 Summer Olympics, for National Geographic Society Expeditions, and in Nepal for the Himalayan Rescue Association. He is also the author of Wilderness 911, a back-country medical primer published by Mountaineers Books. Michael Jacobs, M.D., is the author of Survival at Sea, and the founder and program director for the Medicine for Mariners and Safety at Sea Conference. He is a USCG licensed captain and an avid sailor and kayaker."

"Nature has her spring clean. And we, human people, follow her lead: we clean up our minds and our blood by getting out into the open once more for camping and hiking." -
