Most of us are often dehydrated at the best of times. With this baking weather - working outside can become a major issue.
Heat exhaustion and heat stroke are more real than you might think.
Our instructor tip, which we use, is a simple homemade hydration drink:
1 liter water + 1 teaspoon salt + 1 tablespoon sugar.
Really simple and
really effective! Way tastier and far more inexpensive than your
chemist dioralyte stuff.

Your
proper mountaineering or kayaking first aid kit is often really well
packed inside ziploc bags, plastic bags and a dry bag. I know personally
you can sometimes be reluctant to pull out your first aid kit for
something minor like a blister or cut - however not treating it isn't
great.
So carry a second tiny first aid bag which has a sprain
bandage, few safety pins and few plasters - carried in the top pocket of
your backpack.
If something minor happens you can have it
whipped out within a few seconds, deal with the small injury and carry
on without delay, or without having to delve into your well waterproofed
big first aid kit!
What Should Be In Your Proper First Aid Kit?
