Take tools, food, water, blankets and fist aid kit. You never know trust me. Also don't do anything that does not feel right. Take the time to get out and test water depth before u go through it. Just a few things many many more though. Oh most of all have fun and be safe!!!

I agree on the supplies. You need to think self reliance especially if you go it alone. Take it slow and always look at obstacles from all angles. Do you have a air pump as well? Airing down will give you better traction and a softer ride.
But most important, have fun and never do anything that looks too hard alone.

Recommend recovery equipment, ability to air down and up. This is crucial for traction and passengers. Riding is different from driving. Going by your self Jeep wise is one thing but bring a passenger you never know when you will need a second set of hands, eyes, etc.. can't drive and spot trust me.

Guns, Another vehicle, a GPS and a phone to add, also don't blast through puddles of water, or water in general. Extend your breather tubes if you plan on going into anything deeper than your tires sidewall.
