Default Off Roading Question

This may have been covered before but hey, I'm a new guy... I just bought a 2003 F150 Crew Cab 4x4 with the 5.4 .. My question is this, I go WAY off road sometimes and want to make sure I'm less likely to be stranded... Other than a spare belt and fluids, what other spares and tools should I have in/on the truck ? I 'd appreciate the help ...

Tow strap, rope, shovel, off road jack, mixed set of open end wrenches, mixed set of screw drivers, wire ties, 12gauge wire, duct tape, couple cans of fix-a-flat, fire extinguisher, couple gallons of water, energy bars, space blanket, first-aid kit, GPS, map of the area and a CB-Radio (along with your cell phone).

That's a good list.
