Peripherals. Like a special mat, certain statues if that is your preference (I currently always bring along a small statue of Durga that came to me in auspicious circumstances), water (always keep some water handy), whatever you like to have about you that speaks potently for the purpose at hand.

As mentioned different items are taken according to purpose as well as desired location. I often head out into the woods for a bit of a hike to some of the places I work and backpacking a ton of stuff isnt important.
I use a deer hide to sit on most of the time, its very thick and warm against the cold evening ground, as well as having the link to my native sibling the deer.
In my backpack at all times...
Candles, cedar and sage for smudging, smuding feather, crystals, journal, matches, water and usually some sort of fruit.
My drum and rattle.. but thats a different post!
What's in your bag?
