Explanation:

Since this text is should be aimed at hiking experts, which is to say, professionals, we would expect it to contain a lot of technical information. Regular hikers, the ones who hike for a hobby and on the accessible terrain would mostly be concerned about obtaining adequate food and water supply as well as the protection from sun or rain. However, hiking experts beside all of these things need to pay attention to adequate gear, shoes, bags since they are hiking in a much more hostile environment - they need to take care of their security first.
