-Small snack foods

Dress properly. Water , granola bars, hard candy, gum, a fully charged cell phone and off unless in use for emergencies only, 4 extra large garbage bags, 2 lighters, a small flashlight and 2 extra batteries.
a small first aide kit and a sleeping bag. You all can split up the things you may all need.

you should bring a sleeping bag, you could get a backpack that lets you tie in a sleeping bag, matches or a lighter is always handy, a small flashlight, you could bring pre made sandwiches wrapped in aluminum, a canteen with water, pocket knife, ipod. trail mix if you like nuts, beef jerky, and maybe some napkins for the restroom

Guns, ammo, a chainsaw, and lots of liquor, I'm thinking 6 handles of whatever you drink. And if you don't drink and don't like guns or chainsaws, then you and your 'friends' should just go to the spa.

The lists above are good, but you MIGHT consider some of these:
You don't need a tent but a pillow is nice...
or an empty pillowcase can be filled with a change of clothes to make a pillow
flask of whiskey or moonshine
candle

Are you in grizzly country? Pepper spray
Rope to suspend your good food at night
and be sure to take trash food out of the camp
A roll of trail marking tape can be useful
a few sticks of lighter wood or a duraflame log
toothbrush
half roll of Toilet paper
Can you find a few MRE's? (Meals Ready to Eat)

And I like a gun. There are some AA holes in the woods.
mine's an alloy Taurus Judge,.... shoots both .410 shotgun shells and .45 colt rounds
