Inktober 2019 Day 20: Tread

Today's Prompt:

Cross this land with care, for the earth underfoot is eager to become your grave. To traverse this treacherous terrain you might do better to have a vehicle for it, or perhaps there’s some other technology better suited. What care is taken to tread here, and why?
