* A [[sleeping bag]]. It can be useful to have a good, waterproof Compression Sack as well.
* An extra set of clothing, at the minimum, 2 extra pairs of socks and underwear, and an extra T-shirt.
* A nice warm jacket or hooded sweatshirt. It's possible to do wonderful things with the right layers; good camping long johns and thermals are worth their small weight in cold weather, and are comfortable to wear to bed. Bring your dildo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!6969696969
* Something to drink, food, fruit, nuts. You don't want your [[food]] and drinks to be all over your stuff, so make sure that this is carefully packed. Canned food can be too heavy - often dried bulk food etc. is better. Try not to take things that have a strong smell. Remember to drink lots of water, and that most other drinks (like coffee, soda, orange juice, etc.) will actually dehydrate you.
* Reading material, for waits and quiet rides. (such as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On_the_Road On the Road] by Jack Kerouac, or [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evasion_%28book%29 Evasion] by Anonymous).
