Reconcile Climber's Journal Dates with Game Events

[cekivi]

So, what the post said. The climber's journal on Timberwolf Mountain implies that the aurora started on September 6th by bringing down the cargo plane. The reason being that there are no signs of rescue or recovery attempted on the map. The wreck is just left there with corpses around it. The problem is, even in the frozen north, September is way too early for the lakes to freeze and set out ice fishing huts. It's still fall and salmon fishing season

To reconcile this, either the plane crashed accidentally in which case there should be evidence of search and rescue and recovery on the map or the date is later and closer to winter. Otherwise the conclusion is that the Canadian government really doesn't care about plane accidents and lets unnamed hikers perform solo search and rescue

Personally, I'd just change the date from September to November. Even November still a little early for safe ice to be on the oceans... but at least it makes more sense than September!

maybe all of the colemans er dead guys are what's left of the search and rescue?  though the fishing huts is a better point.  If there was a disaster there may not be a way to do search and rescue other than on hoof - but it takes time to build up ice to take huts - probably not going to happen in a week or so leastwise not so people would trust the ice

That's exactly my problem. Ice huts means winter but the journal clearly says fall. Although if the numerous dead folks on the mountain (my head cannon said they were the flight crew) are supposed to be search and rescue they should at least have different clothes.
