Overview

Mountaineering First Aid provides you with all the latest information on assessing and treating conditions you may encounter in the wild -- from serious injuries and minor cuts and bruises to weather-related problems and unexpected major illness. Long used as a primary resource for the MOFA course, developed in 1968 by The Mountaineers in conjunction with the American Red Cross Serving King and Kitsap Counties in Washington State, this completely updated edition will prepare you for anything in the backcountry.
