On a more useful post. I carry chains and a boom for emergencies now. I started putting a couple of grade 8 bolts washers and nuts through a loose link so I could "secure" the chain and the hook.

The most inportant thing,a good dose of common sense.
I carry:
swede saw
Jack-All
axe or hand axe
D-handle shovel
20' nylon sling(tow strap)
12v air compressor and plug kit
Larger cross wrench
24" key(bolt cutters)
first aid kit
wool blanket
water
quart of oil
bar of soap
hand sanitizer
bug juice
WD-40
eye-glass repair
duct tape and tie wire
tools,3/8drive mm&SAE ,8"linesman pliers,10"cresent wrench,combination sets mm&SAE, multi screwdriver,claw hammer
Bic lighters and matches
Tire chains
HD come-a-long
jumper cables
Baby wipes and grease wipes
TP
After many thousands miles in the back country,I have needed
air compressor
cross wrench
swede saw
tow strap
tie wire(+pliers)and duct tape
tools,alternator and idler bearing (on highway)
tire chains,snotty muddy roads,not stuck
bug juice
Jack-All
eye-glass repair kit
With our logging roads ending in water sheds,I have found it both easier and faster to walk the last few hundred yards.

When on private land some fence repair gear, basic water fittings to repair leaky pipes and a notebook to write down anything you notice may need attention.
Carry those and use them and I will guarantee you'll get invited back and will also be made welcome by other land owners in the area.
