Absorkee™

Purchase Kit(s)

The Absorkee™ kit is a scaled down version of the Kilimanjaro™. It is intended for parties of 2-8 adventurers whose destination requires supplies and equipment to be as comprehensive, and yet as light, as possible. The supplies and accessories in the Absorkee™ are of necessity fewer in number and lighter in weight than those of the Kilimanjaro™. It is packed in a custom designed case, and fits inside most larger backpacks. This kit would be an excellent choice for the party planning an attempt on Denali, or a long ski traverse in the Selkirks; It would be perfect if you are planning to run the rig down to Baja for an escape from the dreary months up north. Designed and executed to the same high standards as the Kilimanjaro™, each Absorkee™ kit contains a complete set of FLASHCARDS™, an ultra-light, all plastic, environmentally durable instruction manual keyed to the most common wilderness medical emergencies, which will assist you in the proper use of the supplies and medications. The Absorkee is organized into labelled & indexed modules so that items may be quickly located in an emergency. Replacement items are always available, and medications may be refilled at any time.
