OK, here's what I'd take based your list: day pack, small tarp, liter Nalgene bottle with Steripen filter cap and Steripen (plus 2 extra batteries), Trangia mini stove and cookpot and plastic spoon, folded foil windscreen, 16 oz methanol, Leatherman tool, cellphone and AA charger, Cutter's insect repellent, baseball hat, sunglasses, bandanna, windbreaker, gloves, toilet paper, large bandaids, ibuprofen, antiseptic wipes, lots of breakfast bars, instant oatmeal, crackers, pimento cheese, canned meat, and 3-in-1 Nescafe coffee packs. On my person always: watch with small compass on band, pocket knife, AAA Arclight flashlight, comb, whistle, flexible signal mirror and magnifying lens, Cricket piezo lighter, pocket tool, needle in wallet. I might take one of my pistoles...maybe my .22 S&W stainless 2213 pocket pistol and a handfull of ammo. That's it, I think.
