Inside my rucksack
This is kit a team member will carry, as basics. In addition, they will be carrying section kit – items related to the type of incident they are responding to. Apart from a few selected items, such as radio, long range search lamp, harness and helmet, this kit is pretty much what any hillwalker should have with them, too.
