Gloves are a good idea, even tho I hardly ever get around to putting them on.  I use neoprene ones on early and late season trips, so my hands stay dry while paddling.  Also use cotton ones for arranging the fire-pit or as hot pads when cooking, to keep cleaner.
Somewhere there was recently a post on having glasses on in the woods.  Also a good idea; I've had some nasty pokes and slaps by sticks, luckily nothing serious.  Some of my canoeing partners do not have as good eyesight as myself, and more often have trouble with sticks in eyes, seems their eyes do not see the stick coming, and reaction time is slower so injury is more likely.   :(
