Here is a brief review of my LifeSystems Mountain Survival First Aid Kit, which also serves as a list of the sorts of things you should have when climbing up mountains. This list is by no means definitive, but is a good place to start, enabling you to offer first aid to anyone who might need it. Remember you should know what you are doing and with any luck won't end up being a casualty, but there are plenty of others who are ill-prepared that might just need some help.
