I carry rain ponchos and space-blankets (silver poly sheet) with me. I also carry some rope and duct-tape as well. Using the rope (twine, etc) I will tie the rope between trees and then use the space-blankets and the duct-tape to put it all together. The corners of the space-blankets can be held down with medium sized rocks.
The space blankets will keep the wind and rain off of you, and, if you build it right, it could help keep you alive for several days (provided you have sufficient water and food).
Rescuers will be able to locate the silver of the space-blanket easily from the air and also from the ground if they are looking in the right direction while hunting for you.
