First aid books tell you what to do ’til the doctor comes. But what if the doctor isn’t coming? Mountaineering First Aid is a brief, light booklet outlining seven steps (including basic first aid) that will help “stabilize the situation.” The steps are intended to help you organize and keep psychologically cool under trying circumstances. First aid is only part of it; you must insure the safety of the other members of the party and get everyone back to safety. Good stuff to know for anyone who ventures beyond the parking lot.
