Just by the way, the trend here is moving to bubble wrap in place of space blankets.
Less likely to tear and does a similar job of insulating the patient.

Well, as of December of this year, it is still the ABCs.

Unless it has been adpoted by local agencies, or by the NREMT, then I will follow my training, and if it changes, then I will adopt the new methodology.

EMT-B Wilderness Jump Kit

I carry a Conterra USAR bag in my truck as my primary Mountain Rescue / Rural Ambulance jump kit when I respond to back country medical calls where a regular ambulance cannot reach and when I expect extended transport times. I also have a Ferno EMT vest that I use for working on the ambulance with basic BLS/ABC supplies to carry on my person when I am working at crash scenes on the highway, etc.

It's an extensive kit and it is big and heavy. Pretty overkill as a jump kit for first responding to car wrecks when an ambulance is enroute, but pretty light in dealing with a single or multi casualty back country accident, of which I've had a few.
