True North Medic Pack: Reliable Organization

As a trusted source for quality bags, packs, and fire-resistant clothing and accessories for nearly one-quarter of a century, True North specializes in designing and manufacturing all the essential gear for an EMT or paramedic also serving as a wildland firefighter, such as equipment and fire-retardant clothing for wildland and structural fires, along with search-and-rescue operations.

True North understands that emergency medical providers, many of whom do, in fact, double as wildland firefighters, fully realize the challenges and imminent dangers posed by wildfires and recognize the inevitable aftereffects: erosion, landslides, debris flows, altered water quality, and others. This is why it’s imperative for emergency medical professionals to stay well-organized, thereby ensuring that all essential, first-aid equipment is readily available and accessible at all times. True North’s solution: the new True North Firefly Wildland Medic Pack – Gen 2, which is designed for easy carrying and maximum efficiency when its vital contents are needed. Here’s why:


True North Firefly Wildland Medic Pack – Gen 2


Constructed of sturdy, 1000D Cordura® Nylon webbing, the NFPA 1977-classified True North Firefly Wildland Medic Pack – Gen 2 is ideal for firefighters and EMTs who need to walk any number of miles to perform their essential, job-related duties. Featuring a cavernous 2,500 cubic inches of space, a trap pocket, and lash-down loops, you can virtually take just about all you need when you’re working the line. Organization is key: Its medic bag’s drop-front opening allows quick, full access to essential items, while removable, color-coded organizer pouches ensure everything is in its proper spot.

Small meds and bandages easily fit into zippered, clear-vinyl pockets, and an optional O2 case conveniently attaches to the bottom of the pack. Plus, two separate pockets can comfortably house any personal gear. When you need to traverse rough terrain for miles at a time, you can be assured that the True North Firefly Wildland Medic Pack – Gen 2 will provide amply ergonomic support thanks to its specially designed harness, while its MOLLE-system compatibility on the hip belt conforms to the 1-inch MOLLE-webbing standard, which also allows it to be fully compatible with all MOLLE accessories. Additional specs include:

  • technology: SCS™ Super Compression Suspension
