Here's my basic pack list for up to a week.  If the weather was moderate and I was going for a max of 3 days, I wouldn't have a change of clothes and I might just cold camp.  Pack List

Needle
Birthday candles for easy fire starting
razor blade
tampon for deep wounds or cuts
Foil
Just some things I carry in addition to some of the above.  Both great lists above, by the way
