A few more items you may need:
extra batteries-(for your camera, you wouldn't want to have dead batteries at the wrong time)
rain gear-(just in case, don't know the temps where you are going but I know I hate getting wet when I'm cold)
arrows-(just cause you said bow)lol
lantern-(for campsite)
cellphone-(no brainer, but don't forget the car charger)
