Not sure about the rest of you but we're assuming we have all of our hunting gear already like our camp does but the one addtion we've made that has been heavenly is a portable home made shower.
50' of 3/8" copper pipe rolled into a coil to fit into a metal 5 gallon pail; one deep frier burner hooked up to a 20lb propane tank; a 12V water pump; some water hose to water source and shower head, pallets and tarps and you just cannot beat it.

Good axes.
1 trip north of Whitecourt I bought 2 super awesome axes from P. Mart  they both broke and there we were with no axe. No more cheap axes, Gerber or Fiskars with the unbreakable handles.....

1Rifle with scope & sling. 2 rifles if you have a backup - know of hunters that have had broken scopes and problems with their rifles while elk hunting - Too far from home to replace if needed
2 boxes of ammo minimum - may be hard to locate extra ammo in the field or if you are not near town or the store is not open at night or Sunday
2 smaller sharp knives - I prefer my Buck knife with a 3" lock-blade
1 larger hunting knife
1 sharpener - I prefer a small pocket size or belt steel
1 belt saw for bone
1 hatchet - although 2 does makes life easier
1 gun cleaning kit
1 all purpose tool such as Leatherman
1 pair of binoculars
1 compass or GPS
1 roll of orange florescent surveyors tape
1 small flashlight with batteries & extra batteries
1 cigarette lighter or waterproof matches
1 day pack or fanny pack
1 first aid kit for day pack or fanny pack
2 water bottles for day pack or fanny pack
1 sturdy frame-pack for packing - at least one frame pack
1 sturdy length of rope for tying quarters to frame-pack - Frame-pack not necessary if using horses
1 sturdy length of rope for hanging quarters
1 big game bag for covering and protecting meat or 4 game bags for each quarter
1 pair of waterproof boots - never know about weather , may be 70 degrees - Boots with air-bob soles work the best
1 pair of insulated waterproof boots - never know about weather, may be cold & snow - Boots with air-bob soles work the best
1 pair of hiking shoes for warm days and /or after hunting
regular socks for length of stay - warm weather
heavy socks for length of hunt - cold weather
clothing for length of stay for warm weather - 50-80 degrees
clothing for cold weather - 0-35 degrees
1 set rain gear
baseball type cap for warmer days
heavy hat for cold days
1 or 2 pair warm hunting gloves
1 small bottle of aspirin
1 bottle of elk scent
1 bottle of scent eliminator
elk call - bugle or cow call - cow call will work during & after the rut, will also stop departing elk for a shot or a follow up shot
Florescent orange clothing to meet the requirements of said state
1 thermos bottle - size of choice
1 can pepper spray
1 large can black pepper - cover fresh elk meat with it to ward off flies & insects
scent free deodorant, soap, shampoo
1 roll of Duct Tape - Would be surprised of the uses for this
IF Elk hunting

One pack in camp, one pack in the truck/pack. Really handy to get the worst of it off the hands after dressing out an animal too.
BTW, we've had more than one guy head out in the morning wearing a t-shirt...and come back later in a tank top  .
