With the warmer weather coming on the hiking trails are the perfect place to get some exercise and enjoy the outdoors at the same time. Sometimes that means getting splinters or thorns in your hands when bushwhacking through brush and means that you need something to pull the thorns and clean the wounds. I find that it is always important to be prepared in these situations so I typically carry a backpack with a small medical kit and a Swiss Army knife. The knife has everything I need for pulling splinters or thorns and the med kit has some alcohol wipes and bandages.
