I thought that this might be a fun thread, as well as giving others some great ideas.

What are some key items that you include in your hunting pack when you head out the field (besides the typical hunting knife, matches, spare ammo, etc.?

While hunting for moose/elk in the Canadian boreal forest & foothills I will pack:
- zip ties
- small tarp
- thin paracord
- headlamp & spare batteries
- surgical gloves
- small first aid kit
- hand sanitizer
- cotton balls covered in Vaseline in a 35 mm film canister
- flagging tape
- hotel mending kit
- emergency blanket
- Occasionally my MSR Pocket Rocket and fuel, but bulky.
- Water in Platypus bladder

Any other items that people put in? Include the type of area you hunt too if you don't mind.
