extra clothing (extra layers, warm hat & gloves, extra socks)
sun protection (sunscreen, hat with brim)
extra food (snack bar, munchies)
topographic map of your area
first aid kit
headlamp or flashlight
pocket knife
compass
fire-starter or waterproof matches
emergency whistle

I'd add:

High quality firearm.

Leatherman tool.

The problem with cell phones is that we are out in places without coverage.

Oh well. Most of the great things worth doing in life involve risk. Heck, I'm a pilot and a motorcycle rider, AND I was once married! 8O
Your GPS idea is good too.
