First Aid Kit

All researchers must have access to a basic first aid kit in the field. You may use the National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS) first aid kit guidelines to make sure the first aid kit available in the field is adequately stocked. We offer first aid kits for checkout to those who have taken Wilderness First Aid (WFA). 

Satellite Communication Device

In areas with limited cell phone coverage, a radio or a satellite phone may be necessary. We offer the Garmin inReach SE+ satellite communication device for checkout.
