Adding another spot where i was stuck....

I've noticed one spot where I have gotten stuck on three different playthroughs (so it's pretty consistent).  The spot is in the SE corner of the basin.  If you're looking towards the transition point follow the shoreline to the left into a narrow inlet.  Near the base of the inlet is a little dip beyond a little snow drift on the ice.  As I've walked over this area (generally during a foggy period in the weather), I've seemed to fall in (as the character might on weak ice) and found myself stuck as though I was about waist deep.  On two occasions, I was able to wiggle my way free.  On one other, I had to exit the game and reload at my last sleep point.   I'm playing on an Xbox One in Pilgrim Survival Mode.

This is an issue in the game that for me has made me extra careful where I step. 

The idea is stay to solid ground, look for easier routes and you will have less problems.  The game has no jump which makes the hiking experience uniquely challenging.   When you want to try to learn alternate routes do so carefully.

And purchase some insurance.

The thing is, my spot appears as a normal spot of wind-blown ice (not snow covered ice and not weak ice).  The terrain is not severe in any way.  It's just a "hole" in the world.

That could be a bug.  To report it take a screenshot. Do you have the debug screenshot like on PC?  Holes in the world are troublesome especially in newer terrain.  I have fallen right through the map and beginning to fall to nowhere I had to exit.  The perma death made me cringe and I did not want to find out when or if I hit something.

I don't really know how to post a screenshot to the web from my Xbox and I don't have any image hosting membership.  I was hoping that my description of the location would be enough for someone else to retrace my path to find it.  As I said, I have fallen in at the same spot on three separate runs, so it is pretty consistent.  If you look at a map of the Milton Basin, you can clearly see the little "arm" off the main lake in the SE corner.  I noticed in their patch notes that they have already patched a number of these such holes, but they've missed this one so far.

Usually I just copy and paste.  No hosting needed.

From your description think I will take a hike out there.

Thanks everyone for your posts! We've received a number of reports about areas in Pleasant Valley and Milton Basin where Survivors can drop below the ice.

This is something we are looking into, but it this happens to you we do recommend reloading from your most recent save. If you are ever stuck, be careful not to do actions that might prompt the game to save, such as sleeping or passing time.
