You might want to get a mini flint and a little canister that you can put cotton into, just as a backup to matches/lighter. Of course, if you stay at a shelter, you can probably get away with yogi-ing if your matches get wet or lighter won't light.

Where, when, and for how long are you hiking?

Just offhand in addition to what others have posted:

Cup or mug
Water container(s)
DEET
sunblock
water treatment
food bag and hanging line
camera
maps
soap, liquid or leaves
2 or 3 zipper lock type bags(trash, food, extra water, etc)
duct tape
bandana

also depending on where and what season(though I and many others always have these not just for warmth but sun and bugs as well)
long sleeve shirt
long pants

Why do you have zero grams for socks and underwear -- does that mean you're not using either? Does the stove weight include a cannister of gas? Some people enjoy toilet paper, alcohol gel, and something in which to carry water, to name but a few.

earplugs
tweezers
DON'T need trowel
guidebook

Check out some lists already posted, seems like you're missing several things but it's easier to spot things to be left off than things missing.

I always see people suggest "no trowel" but I don't understand why? Isn't it required for LNT?

I think the list said 1/2 of a towel, not trowel.

Trowels break or bend. You can dig a cat hole with a stick, your heel, etc just as easily.

Okay, that's it. I have had the same eyeglass prescription for just over two years. I am going to get my eyes checked this week. I need to get new nosepads for one pair, anyway. Thanks.

Yeah, I had to look twice as well after you brought it up. I'd like to get LASIK, but the idea of LASER and burn and eyeball just gives me the willies.

Ah, so you're going tramping, on walkabout, or whatever you call it down there. We kind of assume here that people are hiking the AT unless they say otherwise, as the forum is kind of centered on it.

You may not have bear, but watch out for all those poisonous spiders and snakes. You have some scary critters down there.

Can't go without music. Get a light weight MP3 player.
