I've been gone a couple years, but never had this problem. Is this a Steam problem? How do I fix it? It repeatedly pops up while I am playing.

Got to give props again, we were lucky to have Christopher Plummer to narrate this. RIP.

Is it just me, or are the crampons not having their prescribed effect on climbing ropes while in the Coastal Highway region??

Yeah, somebody made a booboo when they updated the list. The original one, now called "Coastal Mountain Region", has 14 total locations. The new one has 13. The old list had an "Abandoned Lookout" location trigger to go with the icon, the new list has just the icon. My best guess is "Coastal Region" list is the latest version, as it has more precise names on the entrance/exit icons.

It allows me to temporarily forget I live in the "real" world. Sandbox only player, never even been tempted to play the episodes for whatever reason. I love me some story, but I'll keep watching for the movie!

Unbelievable. I really appreciate you helping me out here....I took 3 FULL walks through that small cave and am apparently just blind. I even knew what I was looking for. *Sigh* embarrassing.

@HawkThe cave you mention in the quote above is the cave I am talking about that NO LONGER ALLOWS YOU TO EXIT, except for the same way you came in. I'm trying to figure out a different way of saying it. There is one way into that cave, and one way out, and it's the same hole. When was the last time you took that route you are describing?

Hi Hawk....are you saying here you are still able to find a rear (southern) exit to the cave? If yes, when did you last accomplish the mountain goat down to the pond? I last did that route in December/January, but now there is only one way in and out of the cave.

@Laika Ivanova @Cellar_Attic ....congrats Cellar! I'm wondering if you guys are looking at old information regarding requirements. Rural Crossing/Thompson's, Andre's Peak, and Community Hall are all listed in the OP of this thread. I suppose it's possible they've done some ninja-editing, but alas. I look forward to getting this achievement and joining the ranks of the accomplished.

I last played in December and early January and I thought for sure I was able to get out the back of the cave then. I'm wondering if it has been altered again since REDUX, in correlation with them updating the Faithful Cartographer requirements for that region.

Can someone out there confirm for me there is no longer a separate exit for the cave in Mountain Town we enter(ed) to get to the crash site? I know how to get to the crash site (the other way), but I'd like someone to tell me I'm not crazy and there's been a cave-in that blocks access via the Spruce Falls Bridge route. Much appreciated.

Congrats Laika! And thank you....so far so good on my trek...it will be forever before I know if I have a problem with my achievement. There is another player in here somewhere though that may take you up on your offer.

Thanks VHK. And I should be careful with the compass point talk, since I can't really say what's North and South.....although "they say" it can be figured out by following the sun. Apparently the maps aren't all oriented with North going "UP". A fine idea for the makeshift compass.

Trying to determine if it's possible to get the Faithful Cartographer achievement if your Mysterious Signal Fire in HRV spawns at the "northern" location. If you have the achievement, would you mind checking your map to see where your fire is and sharing it? See discussion on page 3 here:
