I updated the equipment page to include our compulsory items for your first aid kit. I asked chat GPT to reformat it with items that need to be routinely replaced at the top.
After updating the page I asked Chat GPT Can you think of anything else that should be in a first aid kit for people who four wheel drive?
ChatGPT said:
Great question—first aid kits for 4WD/off-road environments should go beyond standard kits due to the remote, rugged, and sometimes risky nature of the terrain. Here are extra items to consider including:
