I would add cordage to the list.
Have not had to spend unplanned night.
Been dang close! 6 hours in a swamp as a youth , no desire or time to backtrack. Found a ridge with some stumps,used compass off it expecting to return,, and hit logging trail tent was on a hundred yards farther. Been awhile though. Never panic,the word still gonna be there tomorrow.
A friend got lost awhile without meds. Would have been a rough nite.
Easier to set up near wood than haul it to far if possible. If being searched for moving around area won,t help. Stay busy building a debris shelter or another project.
