Recovery strap, not tow rope. No hooks on the straps either.

A Cell phone with service if you can manage that, another Jeep to go along with you, everything already mentioned and a little luck never hurt.

An air pump so you can pump up your tires after...airing down before you wheel i found to be very helpfull. Not only does it help your traction, but it really helps with the roughness of the ride. Plus it allows you sidewalls to flex around sharp rocks and not fight against them and risk a puncture
