Hi, everyone!
Jet and I made it past all of the rivers on the west/northwest side of the island.
We took a few detours and I've been moving kind of slowly.
So, I think someone could reasonably make the journey in about four days.
We could shorten it if we can put some nice sturdy logs down across the river branches near the hotel.
I think that could really help in making it easier to get down to the base from this side of the island.

No animal attacks! :)
But we might have just got lucky.
We did hear some weird stuff going on the day before yesterday, though.
Did anyone else hear a sort of rhythmic thrumming?
I wasn't sure if it was just over by us.

You're trying to make a point about not worrying about every ridiculous possibility, but those are all literally things that happened and we would have been better off if we'd anticipated and prepared for it.
Just saying.

apologies! i lost this tags somewhere along the way

My world had normal Boy Scouts.
That's more my point.
They wouldn't have been prepared for all those things.
I'm also not sure how we're supposed to prepare for every single potential possibility when they're all off the wall.
'Expect the unexpected' only works if you have access to the supplies and people to use them.
Not to mention the time to build what you might need.
And it's not like we could even fight something like those crab masses.
Not unless you want to forge me a cauldron big enough to hold them and stoke a fire big enough to boil them.
