In addition to salt and pepper I always bring some kind of multi-purpose blend that I tailor to the food I plan on making.
If I had to choose one more individual spice though I think next in the line of necessity would probably be garlic powder for me (not garlic SALT mind you, if I want salt added to my garlic I'll add it myself).
I always seem to end up bringing some chili flake as well in case I want to add heat to something, so I guess that's a close second.

Coming from Southern Maryland I do have to admit that I have a fondness for that everyday magic spice blend "Old Bay". Added to just about eveything its perfect with fish and corn on the cob. Of course I have that bit of "old fashioned" bit in me and with a nod to the campers of yesterday I like a blend of ground red pepper and salt to wake things up a bit. Other spices that end up making the trips is of course garlic powder/salt, Curry powders and maybe even a few dried herb blends stashed in a corner of a pack

Like Keth0601, I'd bring garlic powder if only one is allowed, but prefer a blend of garlic powder, basil, oregano, and a bit of tyme. Works on any pasta, pizza, or eggs.
After that I also love to bring saffron for rice/paella and some Cajun spicy blackened fish spice.

My favorites are all Penzey's spices too! Smoky 4 S is a great seasoned salt good on everything.
Black and Red was new to the trip this year. Great for a little heat.
Ruth Ann's is a great one for foil fish dinners.

Emeril's Cajun spice mix. At home I use it on ribs, pork chops, chicken, etc, and also use it as blackening seasoning on fish. In the woods it goes on lots of stuff. I mix up my own (I'm not sure if he sells it pre-made but if he does theres probably too much salt in it as with most commercial products). It is a whole bunch of spices but adds a nice smokey peppery kick to meats and veggies and does NOT have a salty flavor (I cut down the salt from the recipe I followed even more than the little it said).
