Adventure Medical Kits rely on the expertise of world authorities in wilderness medicine and survival techniques to develop and refine first-aid / survival kits for the gamut of outdoor pursuits. Adventure Medical Kits supplies first aid kits in all shapes and sizes so it's hard to know where to start. For short backcountry ski trips I looked at the Adventure Medical Kits Ultralight/Watertight Series and the Adventure Medical Kits S.O.L 3 (Survive Outdoors Longer, not Shit Out of Luck) which also includes gear repair and survival equipment.
Whilst the Adventure Medical Kits S.O.L 3 makes a great all round backpacking kit and has some items (such as fire starter and scissors) that I would love to have in my schwag, the Ultralight/Watertight Series seems a better match for backcountry skiing and is more first-aid specific.
