If I were conducting SAR in your neck of the woods I'd rather be toting an M-4, one mag no extras. (It would stop any bad ass mountain lions that wanted a piece of you.) Then I'd want water, water and more water. A GPS, compass, topo maps, radio, spare batteries, more water, first aid kit, pen flares and a signal mirror. OK, maybe some food...... I'd also want all of this on my back, in a little pack, not on my front.
