Thanks for the link CM but the point of my previous post was that this is (IMHO) a bad way to go about it. You end up getting lots of gear which suits the way other people walk.

That's the spirit.
More general point is that if you are inexperienced you shouldn't be going into situations where the perfect gear is essential. You'll be going either to the safer bits or with people who will make sure you have the basics to be OK. Use your experience of these trips to decide what you need to prioritise.
