Hiking Pack

A properly prepared pack is necessary for hiking,outdoors and survival.
Pack with freeze-dried food and high calorie energy bars.

Take at least two large bottles of water.
You're going to need plenty of fluid to get you to where you're going. If you come across lakes or rivers along the way, you can always start a campfire and boil water, and then refill your water bottles.

7 Day Supply of Food

Before you even start your trip, you should have enough food in your hiking pack to last at least 7 days. This is the food you will live off, until you get far enough into the wilderness, and can set up camp, and begin hunting, fishing, and trapping.
It may take a few days for you to become proficient at hunting, fishing, and trapping (it may take a lot longer than that, depending on how quickly you can teach yourself), which means you should go easy on the food you've packed, to survive on until you start catching your own food.

Light Weight Axe and Machete

These are items that you should definitely spend extra money on. A light weight axe is better than a hatchet, as you can cut down larger branches and small trees with it much easier than a hatchet.
The machete is important, because there's a great chance that you won't be on any noticeable trail at times, and may have to chop your way through heavy brush. Spend extra money on a good machete. Avoid cheap machetes, as many don't have good handles, which can break apart after repeated use.
(If your hiking pack is too heavy, consider passing on the machete. The axe is more important. Definitely pack that.)

Mittens & Snowboard Gloves

Mittens will keep your hands warmer than gloves, however gloves make holding items like an axe or rope easier. Snowboard gloves are specifically made for heavy duty use.

Look for a pair that has well-stitched rubber gripping along the palm-side of the glove. (Consider packing both mittens and snowboard gloves).
